AMLO hits his fourth cry of Independence with an appeal to bury classism and racism in Mexico

AMLO hits his fourth cry of Independence with an appeal to bury classism and racism in Mexico

Andrés Manuel López Obrador, president of Mexico, hit this night of September 15 his fourth cry as head of the Mexican State and for the commemoration of the 212th anniversary of the beginning of Independence, a fight for the Mexican emancipation of the Kingdom of Spain that began on the eve of September 16, 1810 by the priest Miguel Hidalgo in the town of Dolores, Guanajuato.

In a crowded Plaza de la Constitución and contrasting with the cry of 2020 in which the president launched his second cry alone due to the coronavirus pandemic, López Obrador now remembered the heroes with a dozen special guests of international stature, such as former presidents Evo Morales from Bolivia and José Mujica from Uruguay, who coincide with the Mexican on the same political spectrum and who throughout the day were attended by Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard, a presidential candidate to succeed AMLO in power by 2024.

López Obrador dedicated his fourth cry to the native peoples of America, but he also called for peace in the world, in a clear allusion to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has been going on for six months now and is turning into a bogged-down conflict, but with too many international repercussions on the economy and food security. “Long live universal brotherhood!” he said.

The Mexican president called for Mexican cultural independence and sovereignty, in another allusion to respect for the internal policies maintained by the 4T.

The cry of Independence of López Obrador of the year 2022 falls a climate of general discontent due to the constant increase in prices, which as an example left an accumulated annual inflation to last August of 8.7% and a Mexican economy that barely grew 1.9% in the first semester , an economic expansion that is still far from the pre-pandemic figures.

The economic state of the country could not be even more pressured by the energy policy pursued by the López Obrador government, making noise in Washington and Ottawa, which have already accepted the T-MEC to make Mexico reconsider its position on the generation of energy from fossil fuels and his disdain for clean energy, which is why AMLO cited sovereignty in his cry.

Others mentioned along with the national heroes were the anonymous heroes, the unknown, as unknown as the nearly 100,000 disappeared that Mexico does not know what became of them for ten years. For them, AMLO also called for justice and urged to bury the classism and racism that still persists in Mexico 212 years after its Independence:

Mexicans, Mexicans…!

Live the independence!

Long live Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla!

Long live Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez!

Long live Ignacio Allende!

Long live Leona Vicario!

Long live José María Morelos y Pavón!

Long live Vicente Guerrero!

Long live the anonymous heroes!

Long live justice!

Long live democracy!

Long live our sovereignty!

Long live universal brotherhood!

Long live Peace!

Mexicans, Mexicans, death to corruption! Death to classism!

Death to racism!

Long live the indigenous peoples!

Long live the cultural independence of Mexico!

Long live Mexico!

Long live Mexico!

Long live Mexico!
