Governing for the minority, in the garbage dump of history: AMLO

Sayula, Veracruz. In view of the imminent transition of government, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador anticipated that there are no complications in the country for this last stage of his administration because There is nothing pending, there is fortunately nothing to fear. And he launched: I even wish it was already the day to give him the band. a Claudia Sheinbaum.

Visibly satisfied with the succession, before the jubilation of Veracruz and the smile of his successor, he affirmed that with the new government there is a guarantee of continuity with change. In a long speech, with his inevitable disqualification of the past for its privatizing and corrupting practices, he assured that that is over.

There is no talk of the government being in the hands of a minority, there is no talk of it being a committee at the service of a few, there is no talk of reforming the Constitution to benefit a minority and impoverish the people. That has already gone down in history, but to the dustbin of history.

During the weekend tour, several modernizations of highway sections were inaugurated to support the Trans-Isthmus Train project (the rehabilitation and expansion of the Acayucan-La Ventosa highway). Sheinbaum described these works as part of the route of change. These are: the paths of transformation because in each work, in each sense of what the President has done, we see the essence of what our movement represents..

López Obrador explained that a breakwater is already being built at the port of Salina Cruz and that its capacity has been increased; also, that the port of Coatzacoalcos has been dredged and cargo train operations have resumed through the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in addition to expanding the roads, such as the one that was inaugurated yesterday from Acayucan to La Ventosa.

He recalled that some people opposed this work, which led to looking for options to carry out the modernization. To achieve a government, he said, that took the people into account, it was necessary to persist for years, because “they defrauded us again and again. Many became demoralized, discouraged (…) We never became discouraged, we fell and got up and kept walking until it was achieved, without violence, through electoral means and peacefully.”

Later, during the inauguration of the Minatitlán-Hidalgotitlán road, the outgoing and incoming Presidents were greeted with jubilation, as if they were in an intense electoral campaign. The people loudly chanted the refrain, with hints of farewell: It is an honor to be with Obrador.

When Sheinbaum took the floor, she appealed to the history of the movement. The first time we heard that voice of the people, because it is the voice of the people, was in 2006, after that terrible electoral fraud that was committed not only against Andrés Manuel López Obrador, but against democracy, against the people. But after 2006, the President walked with the movement.

The virtual president-elect pointed out that today, when the president is closing his six-year term, The people continue to shout: it is an honor to be with Obrador and it is an honor to walk with him now in what I call the historic transition..

The recollection of the recent history of the movement motivated the people to chant the Obradorist refrain more intensely. The President rose from his chair and slowly approached the lectern where Sheinbaum was speaking to take the floor and lead the slogan from the microphone, with the adaptations of 2024: It is an honor to be with Claudia todaySmiling, Sheinbaum witnessed the new times that are coming.

López Obrador made a new account of the factors that influenced the direction of his government, highlighting the fight against corruption and the priority of caring for the people, the essence of Mexican humanism, as he has called his form of government. He also stated that it is a vision that has a future with Sheinbaum as the new leader of the movement.

Leaving the event, during an interview, López Obrador was still euphoric about his successor and he showed it this way: Claudia is going to be the best president. As they would say in my town: the best president in the world..
