Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum stated that there is significant popular support for the transformation movement, while the opposition has less presence due to its lack of proposals. She also announced preparations for a new rally in December at the Zócalo in Mexico City to mark the seventh anniversary of the 'transformation movement's' victory and to counter recent protests. Sheinbaum did not directly address a social media proposal for a counter-rally to Generation Z's march on December 6 but confirmed that they have long considered celebrating the seven-year anniversary of Andrés Manuel López Obrador's presidency, which began on December 1, 2018. 'There are problems, but we are here to work every day for the well-being of the people, for peace and tranquility,' she concluded. As reasons for celebration, she cited positive economic data, including a record $41 billion in Foreign Direct Investment, and social achievements such as universal pensions for the elderly, scholarships for students, an increased minimum wage, and poverty reduction.
