Mexico: 06/03/2024 In an unusual interruption during the morning conference of the president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, an incident was recorded today in which protesters disrupted the event. Despite the noise and interruption, the president continued his conference without changing his countenance.
The event, which took place in the National Palace, was not directly linked to political party activists or to the Ayotzinapa cause. However, people related to the opposition took the disappearance of the Ayotzinapa students as a pretext to express their disagreement.
Outside the National Palace, individuals not affiliated with political parties joined the protest, attacking the main door of the building. Meanwhile, passers-by on their way to work watched the scene impatiently.
Despite the initial tension, approximately one hour after the start of the protest, the aggressors withdrew, apparently affected by the weather conditions, marked by an implacable sun in Mexico City.
The situation highlights the political polarization in the country and the sensitivity that persists around issues such as the disappearance of the Ayotzinapa students. Authorities are expected to provide official statements regarding the incident and take measures to ensure safety at future events.
