AMLO regrets that The Hague is delaying its ruling on the embassy assault

Four months after the police raid on the Mexican embassy in Ecuador, which violated the country’s sovereignty, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador considered very unfortunate that the International Court of Justice (ICJ), based in The Hague, has not yet resolved the lawsuit filed by his government, while it ratified the decision to grant asylum to former Vice President Jorge Glas.

Last Monday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported that the request for a safe conduct pass was submitted to Ecuador so that the former official can leave prison, travel to another country and then return to Mexico for protection.

At the morning press conference at the National Palace, the president stressed that Mexico is more than willing to welcome him. It is part of our tradition in foreign policy: to protect politically persecuted persons from any country. It has always been done..

Regarding the complaint filed with the ICJ, he recalled that it is an agency of the United Nations Organization (UN) and insisted that it does not work. “What is the point of all this bureaucratic scaffolding, of apparatus, of offices, with diplomats of all kinds that cost a lot of money to the citizens of the world, if there is not, in this case, quick and expeditious justice.

The UN is in a deep crisis, nothing more than a decoration, a flowerpot; an onerous, inefficient bureaucratic apparatus that does not help prevent human rights violations or political confrontation in states, violence, wars, nothing.

López Obrador recalled that he once participated in the session of the UN Security Council, where he proposed the creation of a fund to guarantee food for the poorest people, but They didn’t even pass it on to the General Assembly..

He said he also proposed guaranteeing access to the Covid-19 vaccine, in order to avoid hoarding of vaccines. That didn’t work either. That’s why there must be a reform at the UN. The truth is they do nothingbut they have narrators for everything, Very accommodating, generally right-wing, conservative people, who have no love for the people..

López Obrador continued with non-governmental organizations, another invention of the neoliberal periodwhich live off foreign government contributions. This was intended to divert attention; each one deals with a sectoral issue and the distribution of wealth, the situation of the poor and the plundering of natural resources was left aside, he stressed.
