Mexico City.- Claudia Sheinbaum, virtual president-elect, reported this Thursday that surveys will be carried out this weekend to find out the opinion of citizens on the reform of the Judiciary, and that the results of these will be ready next Monday.
After President Andrés Manuel López Obrador warned yesterday that the decision to subject judges, magistrates and ministers to the polls is immovable, Sheinbaum reiterated that he is also in favor of them being elected by direct vote.
However, he warned that this does not mean that the proposal should not be subject to discussion and that the people know the content of the initiative.
“My opinion is also that they should be elected, but I think it is also important that this open parliament be held. And it is not new, I said it throughout the campaign and we usually maintain our positions, but it is also important that it be known,” he indicated. .
He reported that the three surveys that will be carried out to find out the opinion of the people of Mexico about the Judiciary will be carried out this weekend; two of them will be carried out by survey companies and one more by the Morena survey company.
Sheinbaum reported that the results would be ready next Monday.
“The surveys have already been sent out, we hope that on Monday the results of this survey will be available, what the people of Mexico think based on a survey, what is their opinion of judges, magistrates, ministers and also of the direct election” , he pointed.
Regarding the discussion regarding the reform of the Judiciary, the virtual president reported that it will be the coordinator of the Morena deputies, Ignacio Mier, who will give the details of how it will be carried out.
“Today, in the morning, I spoke with the coordinator of Morena in the Chamber of Deputies, with Nacho Mier. He told me that they are going to make known how this process will be carried out,” he said.
Regarding the desire of the Federal Judiciary Council to participate in the discussion of the reform, Sheinbaum said that he received the letter that they made public this Thursday and will send it to the deputies and senators for them to be considered.
“I believe that one of the virtues of the reform is, precisely, that the Judiciary Council is not judge and party, because today it is the president of the Court who is also president of the Judiciary Council,” he stated.
“And really the sanctions are practically administrative, those that have been made to judges or for administrative reasons, not for a matter of really evaluating the substantive work of a judge, a magistrate, a minister.”
Meeting with relatives of Pasta de Conchos miners planned
Sheinbaum assured that with the work carried out for years to locate the remains of the miners trapped in Pasta de Conchos, justice is done for the families.
In a conference prior to the first tour he will make with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador through Coahuila, he confirmed that they will meet with the families of the miners to listen to their demands.
“First, applaud President López Obrador’s decision to search for the bodies of the miners and respond to the families’ demand. Tomorrow we are going to talk with the president, to listen to what the families say, the legal part, we have to see what is what is being proposed, particularly by the Mining Union,” he said.
Sheinbaum indicated that the discovery is a sample of the so-called “Fourth Transformation” and has several words that accompany it and one of them is justice.
“I believe that in this case there is a part, in addition to what has to do with the justice system of our country, a part that has to do with justice, beyond the criminal part. And I believe that justice is being done to the families for having done this work for so many years and we will see tomorrow what the families say and we will find out about the legal part,” he said.
Sheinbaum sees Ecuador’s apology as viable
The virtual president, Claudia Sheinbaum, conditioned the reestablishment of diplomatic relations with Ecuador on that country making a public apology and recognizing Mexico’s right to offer asylum.
The Morenista warned that what Ecuador did in the Mexican Embassy in that country is not minor.
He recalled that not only did they violently enter the diplomatic headquarters to arrest former Vice President Jorge Glass, but they also attacked Mexican diplomatic personnel.
“At the time it happened, we supported President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s decision to break relations,” he said.
He indicated that there is currently a lawsuit in the International Court of Justice requesting the expulsion of Ecuador from the United Nations.
The above, he said, with the aim of ensuring that there is no repetition.
The president-elect warned that the reestablishment of dynamic relations between both nations is not a matter of “sitting down and talking.”
Sheinbaum conditioned that possibility on Ecuador taking the first step, through a public apology and recognition of Mexico’s right to asylum.
“It was extremely serious, all international norms and rules were violated. What Ecuador did with Mexico is no less important.
“So, it is not a matter of sitting down and talking, because what Mexico is asking for in this lawsuit is, on the one hand, an apology and reparation for the damage, and on the other hand, the case of the vice president (Jorge Glass), because “He has the right to asylum in Mexico; because the right to asylum is provided by the country that is giving him the right to asylum,” he said.
