Mexico's President Files Charges After Harassment Incident

Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum stated that she was harassed by a drunk man on the street near the government residence. She described the incident as an attack on all women and decided to press charges against him. Mexico City Mayor Clara Brugard confirmed the man's arrest. Sheinbaum emphasized that this was not the first time she had faced harassment and that the issue extends far beyond her position. "No man has the right to violate that personal space," she said. The president added that the incident affected all women in the country and that she herself had experienced similar situations before becoming president. This incident immediately raised questions about the president's security but also served as a prominent example of the type of harassment women face daily across Mexico. Sheinbaum, 63, is the first woman to hold the presidency in Mexico's history.
