When supporting the Secretary of Welfare, Ariadna Montiel, President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo made clear the legislators of her party that the time of efforts and personal promotion from social programs ended.
Given criticism and even accusations of alleged corruption made deputies of Morena against Montiel, the president defended the work of her collaborator: “She is an extraordinary woman.
What is, there will not be, because it is not right, is that a deputy of a party, or in particular of the party that we come from, wants to usufruct a social program. No, no! It is not a personal issue, they are the rights of the people of Mexico, and so they must be. And that’s why it is very strict Ariadna in that, that no one is personally agreed
the president emphasized in her morning to question about the subject.
The day He published yesterday that during a private meeting within the framework of the Plenary in the Chamber of Deputies, a group of Morenista legislators told Montiel to assume an attitude despot
towards them and of supposed acts of corruption. Given this nonconformity, the coordinator, Ricardo Monreal, offered a mediator to prevent the conflict from climbing.
In this regard, the chief of the Executive revirmed: Ariadna does an excellent job; She is an extraordinary woman. It is not easy to coordinate all the nation’s servants throughout the national territory; Nor is it easy for all welfare programs permanently to be developed
.
Sheinbaum remarked that the official of her government – who was also secretary of the branch in the past sexenium – It is an example
of what it means to govern with humility.
He recalled that at least a decade ago, when the marches headed by the then opponent Andrés Manuel López Obrador, were organized, He put on a fence because people came to greet him, and to prevent there (risks) from putting on a rope; There we were Ariadna and I with the rope, protecting the discovered. So, we don’t listen in this case
.
He stressed that during the six -year term of López Obrador, personal management was completed by legislators or other actors for the delivery of social programs.
“What we do not do is the personal management of deputies, because the programs are universal, that is over (…) the promotion in our movement is house by house, spreading, attending, but not having control of a social program. That no longer exists!”
