According to Cedillo Guerrero, in Nuevo Leon there are two groups of neo-Nazis: one that is dangerous and another that grabs it in fashion. The dangerous ones are those who do believe that they are superior to others, they want to annul all those who do not think like them, with power to exercise it at the moment they reach it.

He explained that Nazism began to manifest itself with greater relevance in our country on the eve of World War II, when Germany acquired 70 percent of the hydrocarbon produced in Mexico, purchases to which Italy joined.

He stressed that neo-Nazi movements have grown in Mexican territory in recent years, and according to organizations, activists and police forces, their expansion in Spain and Russia has been evident for years.
