In the parliamentary group of Morena in the Senate they deplored the position arrogant, intrusive and foolish
of Congressman Dan Crenshaw against President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and legislators from the Guinda party, including the head of the Foreign Relations Commission, Héctor Vasconcelos.
It is best not to confront him because he is a troublemaker
that tries to win votes with proposals such as sending the United States military to Mexico to go after the cartels, instead of fighting the drug traffickers that operate in their country, senators César Cravioto and José Narro agreed.
Crenshaw was in the war, suffered its effects, but it seems that he did not understand anything and wants to continue with that war strategy. This congressman is one of those who supports selling weapons at Walmart, which is why he does not understand the policy of President López Obrador, which is to build peace, address the causes that led to this social decomposition
stressed Cravioto.
Likewise, Senator Narro pointed out that this lout, rude
, who offended Senator Vasconcelos a day before; “I accuse him of being a friend of drug traffickers and he even ordered him to solve the fentanyl problem, when the responsibility lies with those who allow the passage of that drug into their territory (the United States) and sell weapons to the Mexican cartels.”
Meanwhile, the Morena group as a whole repudiated the proposal of Republican Crenshaw, which would authorize President Joe Biden to order the use of armed forces in Mexico.
We believe that the disrespectful and defamatory way in which Congressman Crenshaw has addressed President López Obrador in recent messages is completely unacceptable and offends the State and the people of Mexico. Likewise, the messages addressed to the president of the Senate’s Political Coordination Board, Ricardo Monreal, violate parliamentary principles and practices and threaten the dignity of the Senate as a whole.
they warn.
Separately, the coordinator of the PT in the Chamber of Deputies, Alberto Anaya, joined the condemnation. He described as irresponsible the declarations of Republican senators Lindsey Graham and John Kennedy, regarding military intervention in Mexico. It should not be forgotten that 80 percent of the weapons used by organized crime come from the neighboring country to the north, whose industry has financed some Republican legislators.
