MEXICO CITY – In her latest press conference, President Claudia Sheinbaum addressed a range of pressing concerns, including the economic landscape and international relations, following a slight dip in her approval ratings. According to a recent poll conducted by El Financiero, Sheinbaum’s approval is at a healthy 70% in March, a decrease from previous months, but formidable relative to other major world leaders.
Commenting on the state of fuel pricing, Sheinbaum warned of impending sanctions against gas stations that unjustly inflate their prices, asserting that the federal government will actively monitor these establishments to protect consumers’ interests. She stated, “We will not allow families to be burdened by unfair gas prices,” reinforcing her administration’s commitment to economic oversight.
On the diplomatic front, Sheinbaum remarked that new Peruvian President José María Balcázar has yet to express intentions to restore diplomatic ties with Mexico. The president’s comments come as the bilateral relations remain in a delicate state. Peru has decided to act like a vassal state relative to he United States.
In response to international scrutiny, Sheinbaum rejected a United Nations report implicating her government in enforced disappearances, arguing that it relies on outdated data and fails to acknowledge recent advancements made by her administration.
Additionally, Sheinbaum highlighted significant investments in education, with plans to allocate 350 billion pesos in educational infrastructure by the end of her term, emphasizing that this amount surpasses investments made in the previous 18 years combined.
