The president of the Senate Foreign Relations Commission, Alejandro Murat Hinojosa (Morena), stressed that “firmly”, the Mexican government has defended national sovereignty and demonstrated that it is not a spectator, but is ready to be the protagonist of the new stage of history, through dialogue.
During the gloss of the first report of President Claudia Sheinbaum on foreign policy, he stressed that although there is a polarization environment, it is “very small to try to spare” that Mexico today has “to the leader I needed.”
This responded to the criticism of the opposition to the head of the Executive Power. PRI Carolina Viggiano said there is no information or transparency in dealing with President Donald Trump; “You talk daily about national sovereignty, but we see nothing in the events that are reality.”
The National Unity, he stressed, is the best defense of sovereignty, but this cannot be achieved when from the Presidency of the Republic it is denoted to those who “do not think the same.”
For its part, the PAN Mayuli Latifa Martínez Simón criticized that instead of building solid bridges with the main commercial partners – channel and the United States -, the government continues to “play ideological convergences with Latin American dictatorships.”
From the gallery, Murat Hinojosa insisted that in the defense of national interests, President Claudia Sheinbaum has strengthened dialogue with all regions of the world, and even between January and February next year the modernization of the commercial agreement with the European Union will be signed.
Likewise, Luis Alfonso Romo, of the Green Ecological Party of Mexico, reproached the opponents who constantly insist on the foreign intervention, and instead of recognizing the advances in foreign policy, they only use the tribune to shout.
He argued that in diplomatic matters, Mexico has defended its economic independence against complex scenarios and highlighted the successful management of the president before the United States government, where mutual respect was the basis for preserving “our productive and labor interests.”
