“They are warned now, we are going to find a way of how we modify the law so that it becomes a mandatory norm and not only a letter of request to the concessionaires, but it is a mandatory taxative in the established law,” said the morenista.
According to Monreal, the messages were detected and sought to stop them, but the dealers ignored to privilege economic contracts.
“Yes they were detected in time, the government sent a letter, I am aware, to the different national media dealers, but it was not attended. The only way that a measure of such magnitude is necessarily addressed is modifying the law,” he said.
“The Mexican State did through the Ministry of the Interior, is to send a letter to the media so that they did not transmit them. The media received a payment for the transmission of these messages and judgment of the dealers or their directors did not violate the Constitution and the law by transmitting them,” said Monreal.
“As there is no law that prohibits, the dealers have paid attention to their economic contracts. As a concessionaires they do not have a sharp prohibition about this type of advertisements, disseminate them, so we do not believe that it is with good intentions or with calls, or with letters how a type of campaigns like this can be stopped and that is why we have to do it very quickly,” he added.
Monreal today headed the session of the Political Coordination Board of the Chamber of Deputies, where all parliamentary fractions were unified in rejection of the messages.
For the leader of Morena that message of the neighboring government “seems inappropriate, aggressive and also disproportionate and also violate the entire part that we have fought to stop discrimination. Promotes discrimination.” He ruled out that it is viable to send a diplomatic note and it is better to reform the law.
He also considered that it is an interference of foreign media or organizations in our country, and although they can promote tourism and investments, “they cannot promote this type of disproportionate and discriminatory, persecutory messages, which cannot be affected in our country.”
The PAN Federico Döring warned that the promos of the United States government violates article 2 of the Federal Telecommunications and Radiodifusion Law and therefore demanded that the Ministry of the Interior and the “Dendied” Federal Institute of Telecommunications (IFT) initiate the law procedures for the dissemination of the messages.
Elías Lixa, leader of the federal deputies of National Action (PAN), sued the Government to intervene and apply the law, and criticized that the government is “distracted in other things.”
That requires an explanation, ”he said- and although“ what abounds does not remain ”, the law as it is is enough to act, but there is an omission.
“The truth is that there is a message in this country of a foreign government that the only way in which it should circulate, if it should, that is, I am assuming without granting, it is with the authorization of the governorate and it is clear that this message is violation of the dignity of the people,” said the PAN.
The coordinator of the deputies of the Institutional Revolutionary (PRI), Rubén Moreira, summoned the federal government to send a diplomatic letter to the US government for the promo and criticized the weakness of President Claudia Sheinbaum to just criticize them.
“I see that the federal government is not overwhelming. It is not enough to say that you do not agree. Of course, that no one agrees, if you ask here, because none agrees and we are even offended,” he said.
