Every day, President Claudia Sheinbaum gives a morning presidential press conference and Mexico Solidarity Media posts English language summaries, translated by Mexico Solidarity’s Pedro Gellert. Previous press conference summaries are available here.
Public Companies of the 4T Are Making Progress and Delivering ResultsThe Felipe Angeles International Airport (AIFA) served 22.6 million passengers; Mexicana carried 1.27 million and doubled its fleet; the Mayan Train transported 2.94 million. President Claudia Sheinbaum noted that state owned enterprises operate with clear goals and financial self-sufficiency.
The Recovery of the Railways: A Hallmark of the Fourth TransformationAfter decades of neglect and privatization, former president Andrés Manuel López Obrador reclaimed the passenger rail system. Today, the Mayan Freight Train, the Interoceanic Corridor, and new rail routes are moving forward. Sheinbaum explained that “the revival of the railways is a hallmark of the Fourth Transformation.”
Morena Celebrates 15 Years of Accompanying the PeopleSheinbaum celebrated Morena’s 15th anniversary and called on its members to uphold the principles that gave rise to the movement. “It is the movement closest to the people—I would say perhaps the most important in the world,” the President declared.
Cooperation with the United States, Always with SovereigntyThe President reiterated that all security cooperation must respect Mexican laws, a position acknowledged by the U.S. ambassador. In Chihuahua, the Federal Attorney General’s Office (FGR) is investigating whether CIA agents violated the law by participating in the dismantling of a clandestine drug laboratory.
