In the United States, the governor of the State of New York, Andrew Cuomo, still refuses to resign, while now eight women accuse him of acts of sexual harassment or touching. The pressure is growing and calls for resignation come in particular from Andrew Cuomo’s own camp, the Democratic Party.
« We believe these women, we believe the news, we believe the prosecutor, and we believe the elected representatives of the New York Parliament who concluded that Governor Cuomo can no longer lead effectively. “. The tone is firm and among the signatories of this press release is the parliamentarian Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, elected from New York and rising star of the left wing of the Democratic Party.
Cuomo has “lost confidence”
Other heavyweights have spoken in recent hours, including the two senators from New York State. According to them, Andrew Cuomo has “ lost the trust of government partners and New Yorkers “. In addition to these positions, an investigation was opened in the Parliament of the State of New York, in addition to the judicial inquiry decided by the prosecutor.
Untenable position?
During his last speech, Friday, March 12, Andrew Cuomo, 63, again denied the acts of sexual harassment and touching of which he is accused. He assured that he would not resign. A position that appears more and more untenable in the face of the pace of revelations and the number of voices that are raised to ask for his departure.
