The agreements between the PRI and the PAN for the electoral processes of this and next year are undemocratic, a shameless collusion
which sets aside the ideals of those parties and unites in a coalition those who, as in the case of Coahuila, previously campaigned against the brothers Humberto and Rubén Moreira, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador affirmed yesterday and in a sarcastic tone pointed out that those PRI members who aspire to the presidential candidacy they already sucked headlights
.
The latter, assured the president, because it will be the PAN who will lead the way for the designation of the flag bearers of Va por México to the Presidency of the Republic and the Government of Mexico City, in 2024, while the PRI corresponded to designate the applicants for disputed entities in 2023.
In the morning conference, and beyond such considerations about the opposition, López Obrador again projected a video in which the former governor of Coahuila Humberto Moreira (then of the PRI) launches accusations against the former president Felipe Calderón.
Thus, by using this case as an example, with which for years the PAN members made campaign against the Moreira
the President said that these parties they are most undemocratic
because now they are projected as a coalition.
In the conservative block, there who knows how they are going to do it. They are already talking, I don’t think so, but reports are spreading that they have already reached an agreement that the PAN supports the PRI in the state of Mexico and in Coahuila
the President pointed out. He added that in exchange, they have already arranged: that the PRI is going to support the PAN here, in the city, and in the Presidency. In other words, those who are members of the PRI have already sucked Faros, if that agreement is true
.
He said that if said agreement is finalized, PRI members like Enrique de la Madrid would not be able to run and again mentioned the businessman Claudio X. González, defining him as the head of the supreme conservative power
and who is setting the rules
in opposition.
Suddenly we find out that there are agreements in the conservative bloc, but they are as undemocratic as possible because they just announce it. Who decide? Nor the militants of their parties. Imagine a people from Coahuila from the PAN, who now by decision of those above have to support the PRI and the Moreira, when they were deceived for I don’t know how long by telling them that they were the worst!
To support his argument, he asked to project on the screen of the Treasury Room a photograph from last week of the PRI member Rubén Moreira together with the national leader of the PAN, Marko Cortés, among other PRI and PRD leaders and insisted that in the previous campaigns of the whiteblue one of their banners was that if Coahuila was won, They were going to put Moreira in jail. I think the one who was there before, not Rubén, yes Humberto, or both. And that was the campaign: they accused them of corruption. Such a shameless collusion cannot be presented, where are the ideals?
summarized the president.
let there be unity
in brunette
In a change of focus, towards Morena, the President responded to a question about the call of the leadership of the cherry party to its governors to generate even floor
among those who seek the candidacy of 2024. The Tabasco said that there is unity in this political force and called to include other applicants in the process.
I think that there has to be attention to all, that there be unity, and they are doing it very well. Claudia (Sheinbaum), Marcelo (Ebrard), Adán (Augusto López Hernández) are very close, they are including Ricardo Monreal and others must be included, and all in unity. And the one who is going to decide is the people, there is no finger
he concluded.
