Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum has said she will press charges against a man who groped her during a public appearance.
Mobile phone footage of the incident on Tuesday shows Sheinbaum speaking to a group of supporters on a street near the National Palace in Mexico City. A man approaches her from behind and attempts to kiss her on the neck and place his hands on her body.
“My view is, if I don’t file a complaint, what will happen to other Mexican women? If they do this to the president, what will happen to all women in our country?” Sheinbaum said at a news conference on Wednesday.
You know it was staged, right? Everyone knows it’s a distraction from this. It isn’t the first time she does something to distract from the current events…
I know I’m going to get downvoted for this but it’s infuriating to live in México and you can’t criticize our government because all of you love that an empowered woman is in control… Most of México is a mess right now, cartels are in control, just last weekend I had a trip to my mother’s inherited grandmas house and in a small town and after a 6 hour trip we just went back because they control the town.
My mom said she rather lose her childhood home than our lives…
I’m sure you have ample evidence to back up this claim.
Nah dude, he doesn’t need proof, she’s a woman, they always lie for favors, even as the president. /srs
You mean besides the news articles I linked? The ones with photos?.. No I don’t.
Edit: and because it’s usual for presidents to walk the streets without bodyguard… And more after one politician just got killed…
Se poco y nada de la politica mexicana, pero me acuerdo de alguna vez haber chateado con un mexicano que me dijo algo en las lineas de “te das cuenta de qué partido es el que está con los narcos, porque es el que gana las elecciones”.
No se que tan real es o no eso, pero si es así, te entenderia que la presidente ande sin guardia.
Para mí todos son iguales, solo que tal vez ahora me afecta más directamente con mi jefecita adorada en este momento. No les creo a ninguno.
For English speakers: to me all political parties are the same, maybe just this time it affects more directly with my grandma’s house. I don’t trust them
As we all know, women are never assaulted and only use it for cover ups.
Dunno who said that, I didn’t. Don’t put words in my mouth.
“Look, a woman is using this for benefiting herself, not to get any justice.” Is what you argued.
Are the federales lacking resources or intent? That assassination was clearly a message, I admittedly don’t know a lot about Mexican politics but is it possible to defeat the cartels or is it a competition of monopoly?
Morena, her political party, is very friendly to the drug cartels, AMLO (our last president) went to greet Chapo’s mom for example. He’s the one that created morena.
His ideology was “let them work and they won’t mess with you” .
Imagine stanning for Milei like figures. Rest in piss mayor.
Wait until you find out about “el Bronco”
Reminds me of Benazir Bhutto as Prime Minister in Pakistan.
Her PPP party bombed Imran Khan’s cancer hospital a day after he announced his own PTI party.
