In his statements, Ayub urged the federations to come together and set aside divisions, envies, and jealousy, to ensure the welfare of the athletes and focus on their development. In a call to action, he mentioned that it is time to work together and allocate resources to the athletes, avoiding unnecessary worries that may impair their performance. In addition, he pointed out the importance of maintaining constant support for the athletes on their way to represent Mexico in future international competitions.
