Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum was assaulted while walking in the capital's historic center. A man in an apparent state of intoxication tried to kiss her on the neck and hug her from behind. The aggressor was arrested and referred to the City's Sexual Crimes Prosecutor's Office. The attack has drawn widespread condemnation from authorities, including the National Governors' Conference and the United Nations. The UN called for not normalizing violence against women. Sheinbaum stated she filed a complaint against the attacker and rejected accusations that the incident was staged to divert attention from the situation in Michoacán.
