Mexico’s president says no to Brazil-Argentina common currency

Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador rejects joint project between biggest South American economies and upholds US dollar

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said Tuesday that his country will not join a common currency project planned by Brazil and Argentina. Speaking at his morning press conference, Lopez Obrador dismissed plans by the governments of Brazil and Argentina to create a currency called the “sur” (south) in an effort to reduce the commercial leverage the US dollar has over the region. "We wouldn't agree to that," he said, while underscoring the need for a US dollar-backed domestic currency. 

"For many reasons, we have to continue to keep the dollar as a benchmark," he added.

Mexico choosing between continuity and change

Residents of Mexico would go to vote in the June 2 election amid an ongoing struggle with staggering violence across large territories.

Dozens of organised crime groups now control cities, neighbourhoods, and rural villages, according to AP News. Mexico’s largest cartels opened new fronts of violence in remote corners of the Mexico-Guatemala border. They not only fight among themselves, but also extort money from even the poorest residents.

Even the Catholic Church was forced to intervene, trying to negotiate peace in the conflict zones. However, criminal gangs continued to kidnap and kill priests.

Mexico’s next president will almost certainly be a woman, as both leading candidates are women. At the same time, a third candidate, a man, is trailing behind.

The prospect brought hope to some of Mexico’s most marginalised sectors. Indigenous women and the country’s 2.5 million domestic workers can now make their voices heard. One of the two female candidates provides continuity, while the others promise change.

However, other women, the mothers of more than 100,000 missing people in Mexico, have less reason to hope for change. Outgoing President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s ‘hugs, not bullets’ policy in the fight against drug cartels has not significantly reduced murders. His predecessors’ strategy of prosecuting drug lords did not improve the situation either.

Some Mexicans hope that any of the leading candidates can accelerate Mexico’s hesitant and limited steps toward clean energy. Most agree that López Obrador represents a step backwards. He built a huge new refinery, putting clean energy producers at a disadvantage.

His successor, favourite and former Mexico City mayor Claudia Sheinbaum, is an expert in climate science. As much of the country suffers from water shortages and prolonged drought, she promises rapid change.

In one of their few remaining moments of sanity, the msm long ago dubbed AMLO "the left-wing Trump", which so far has been pretty spot-on. But at this point, like, has Trump even gone this far? Like, his dumbass comments about Putin being smart could be argued as him talking in a purely pragmatic sense, that he was talking about Putin being good at getting what he wants, with morality playing no part in it(he'd still be wrong though). But this? Trump's biggest controversy with gangs was when people decided he was being racist for insulting them too much.

Brought to you by the deliberate inaction of AMLO and MORENA, soon to be the deliberate inaction of Sheinbaum and MORENA. It's like that drone strike comic, only instead it's "they say the next cartel assassination will be ignored by a woman!"

Politicians killed in Mexico since the start of 2024

THE U.S. GOVERNMENT is frustrated that Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador is prioritizing social spending for the benefit of his people over addressing matters that are important to the U.S., according to an excerpt of a leaked top-secret intelligence document. Part of a cache of classified intelligence records that were leaked on the platform Discord earlier this year, the document highlights the growing discontent by U.S. officials toward Mexico’s president, who has significantly limited U.S. law enforcement agencies’ role in the war on drugs.

The document from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence

López Obrador’s 2023 federal budget, presented to the Mexican Congress last fall, does increase funding for social programs, including a significant raise for the pension provided to older Mexicans. It also prioritizes large infrastructure projects, which are mostly concentrated in southern states of the country.

“The crisis of fentanyl is due to the negligence of pharmaceuticals in the U.S.,” said a professor at the Center for Research and Teaching in Economics in Mexico City.

The document, from February of this year, is part of a trove of records leaked to a Discord server, allegedly by Jack Douglas Teixeira, a member of the Air National Guard, and posted online by DDoSecrets, a collective that publishes leaked documents. While reporting on the documents has mostly focused on intelligence on the war in Ukraine, some records include U.S. insight into other regions. 

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Drug Enforcement Administration did not respond to requests for comment. 

During his tenure, López Obrador has done away with much of the security collaboration between the U.S. and Mexico — a decadeslong relationship that ramped up in the mid-2000s — by placing stringent limits on the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency and other U.S. law enforcement agencies operating in Mexico

López Obrador has spent the past five years walking a tightrope: He has had to balance the interests of the U.S., the Mexican business class, and his base — providing concessions to all. Support for López Obrador among Mexicans remains relatively high, with approval ratings at 65 percent, most likely due to the social welfare programs he has introduced. López Obrador’s government has raised the minimum wage and provided cash and food assistance to older Mexicans, as well as scholarships for students nationwide.

Meanwhile, López Obrador’s investment in social programs could also be seen as a way to curb migration, even if the U.S. doesn’t see it that way.

“The impression I have is that for many years, the bilateral cooperation between the U.S. and Mexico prioritized the interests of the U.S. It prioritized that drugs do not reach the U.S.,” said the professor. Yet the U.S. has offered little to address Mexico’s concerns, such as the flow of weapons into the country. “This is called ‘cooperation?’”

120 months, 43 students: The Mexican government is guilty

Until there is justice, there will be no peace! Ten years of struggle for truth and justice.

Statement from ARE (Association of Raza Educators), Armadillos NUMM, Union del Barrio, Mecha SDCC, 43 San Diego. 

On the night of Sept. 26, and in the early morning of Sept. 27, 2014, a criminal organization with the support of municipal, state, and federal law enforcement (mostly the army) kidnapped and disappeared 43 students and murdered 6 more people in Iguala, Guerrero, Mexico.

The president, Enrique Pena Nieto, wanted to close the case quickly. To do so, he developed a theory known as “the historical truth,” which was riddled with falsehoods and rejected by national and international experts. 

AMLO (President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador) promised to resolve the case when he met with the relatives of the 43 while he was still campaigning and then reaffirmed his promise as president. Now, at the end of his mandate, we denounce AMLO for not honoring his promise, for sabotaging the investigation, and for protecting the accomplices in the disappearance of the 43, the armed forces.
