Andrés Manuel López Obrador, president of Mexico, returns to lead some controversial statements, which began with a rhetorical question: “What did neoliberalism do? Promote the so-called ‘new rights’, feminism, environmentalism, the defense of Human Rights “, declared the Mexican president.
In this sense, López Obrador has said that the objective was none other than “being able to loot” at ease. “The purpose was that we did not turn to see what they were looting the world for. That is why there was no talk of corruption,” he assured.
These statements have aroused the indignation of José Miguel Vivanco, director of Human Rights Watch in America, who has described as “total derangement” the words of the Mexican president.
This is not the first time he has attacked feminism
However, it is not the first time that López Obrador has attacked feminism. A year and a half ago he referred to the calls that denounce sexist violence: “90% are false, it is proven“.
In this sense, Eduardo Saldaña, analyst of ‘El Orden Mundial’, points out that “this has a reason for being and that is that Obrador is being unable to stop femicides in Mexico“According to experts, the Mexican president seeks to attract the poorest classes” by telling them that movements such as feminism or environmentalism have been invented by the rich in order not to fight against economic inequality. “
His statements have outraged the feminist movement on numerous occasions, which Obrador has come to describe as “provocative.” However, according to the Ministry of Public Security’s own data, in the first five months of the year, 423 women have been murdered.
