“Leading is not commanding, it is inspiring, accompanying and setting an example.” — Pilar Jericó
Political power and the development of communication skills go together in a democracy that dares to listen, that does not give irreverent answers, or adheres to a pre-established discourse, where the governed are the least important.
The relevant events that have arisen in the United States, with globalization and the real-time communication that we have, where those of us who want to know the events of the world, not just our environment, no longer surprise us at all, last night was more than grotesque.
The abuse of military strategy to extract an alleged dictator, accused by criminals, who fervently desire better treatment in North American prisons and the reduction of their sentences, for all his proven acts, does not give Donald Trump complete credibility in his country.
The economic aspect is also in question, every time the spending of the actions, which took months in studies and intelligence and counterintelligence deals, there are no reports of those millions and millions of dollars, to have in less than a week, frozen accounts and indications of misery of an entire country.
But the streets of the main cities of the uncomfortable neighbor, who threatens, accuses, scolds, without support in many cases, are the images of the lack of control, the inattention and above all the abandonment of people and groups of them, immersed in that lethargy that drugs impose, in a photograph that is repeated in the same way in New York as in Chicago.
And yes, last night on television and social media, we saw again and again, and heard several times, shots fired at a 37-year-old North American citizen, at the hands of those who operate with total impunity in the United States, in order to expel migrants without documents.
A struggle with the door of her truck, the instinctive reaction of the mother of three children, murdered out of hand, without any reason, logical explanation or data that would lead us to consider the fact as irrelevant; and so as not to change the justification comes immediately, self-defense, he used the vehicle as a weapon; This statement is implausible from someone who today with these collateral damages, plus those that we will soon know about the extraction of Nicolás Maduro, will be decisive in losing the intermediate ones in that country.
It is not that “the dictator” had not measured the consequences of his actions, nor had he had detailed information about the offensive in Venezuela, which led to his capture, and seated him next to his wife, today we know with more power than him, to achieve a way out to a friendly country, so as not to have to appear before the North American “justice”, which publicly condemns the accused before judging them.
If this spectacle is against a “president” who stole the 2024 election, imagine what thousands of undocumented migrants are suffering, in prisons or detention centers, before their deportations, how many, dead without the knowledge of their families, missing in Mexico and Central and South America, by the way.
BETWEEN THE LINES
Oil is the great component of discord between rich and poor countries, powerful within OPEC and those that are not, like Mexico, justifying sales or gifts is within the freedom of action of each government.
