“The main achievement of the constitutional reform of 1996 was to have reached a major agreement with society as a whole, allowing Mexico to have its first plural Chamber of Deputies without the hegemony of the ruling party. From that moment on, it was known that a constitutional reform that was not supported by a broad agreement that included the opposition was not viable,” he said.
Cortés warned that the reform promoted by Morena and its allies could generate a series of negative consequences, including an increase in diplomatic tension with the United States and Canada, an increase in unemployment, a drop in the country’s credit rating, the devaluation of the peso, international sanctions and a decrease in confidence in Mexico.
For this reason, the PAN proposes a “comprehensive reform” to the crime prevention system and the Attorney General’s Office.
Cortés insisted on the need for an open parliament, in which students, academics, specialists and other relevant actors participate to enrich the debate and strengthen the justice system in the country.
