Mexico City. “Whoever governs governs, whoever it is, even with discredits, disqualifications and even when they put up barriers, we will continue to demand the presentation alive of the 43” missing Ayotzinapa normal students, parents of the young people stated at a rally on the Zócalo plateau. capital.
As today marks 10 years since the Iguala night and a few days before the end of the current government, they reiterated that their fight “is unwavering and we will continue to demand the presentation alive” of the students.
In front of thousands of people who accompanied them throughout the march from the Angel of Independence, Mario González, father of César Manuel, complained to President Andrés Manuel López Obrador for not fulfilling his commitment to find the whereabouts of the young people.
“You know perfectly well who was the one who participated massively in the cowardly attack on our children, what it was that we need in Mexico, that there really is and that justice is no longer absent,” he stated.
Hilda Legideño, mother of Jorge Antonio Tizapa, regretted that the chief executive “betrayed the trust that we placed as parents and turned his back on the Ayotzinapa case to protect the Army.”
However, he said that the fathers and mothers of the normalistas “will continue forward, we are right, there is evidence, there are reports that demonstrate the participation of the military. “We demand that the missing (military) folios be handed over where all the information about what happened that night is.”
Likewise, he asked on behalf of the families that the Interdisciplinary Group of Independent Experts (GIEI) return, “because only they will lead us towards the path to knowing about our children.”
The fathers and mothers also addressed the elected president Claudia Sheinbaum “we will continue to move forward demanding truth at the same level” from the new president. “We are not going to take a step back,” said Emiliano Navarrete, father of José Ángel.
Also to the incoming government “we tell you that if you plan to do this (blocking the marches) we are going to continue fighting. And tell him that we are not going to give him as much time as we gave to this character (López Obrador) who unfortunately betrayed us,” added Mario González.
While the rally was taking place, a group of hooded men threw firecrackers on the other side of the metal fences guarding the National Palace. However, the fathers and mothers of the normalistas asked to be allowed to continue with their message.
“We are going to ask our colleagues to allow us to continue with our rallies to hear the word of the mothers and fathers,” asked Vidulfo Rosales, the families’ lawyer.
The demonstration ended around eight at night. In a Zócalo where the voice of the normalistas resounded: “Because they took them alive, we want them alive,” “September 26 is not forgotten.”
