The central government and the Cuauhtémoc administration have agreed to work together after tensions escalated following a building collapse. This meeting aimed to ease mutual accusations and establish cooperation on shared interests. Tensions between the two administrations, led by Clara Brugada and Alessandra Rojo de Vega, flared after the collapse of a building in the Colonia Tránsito district, which killed three workers. Previous conflicts arose over various issues, including the removal of statues of Che Guevara and Fidel Castro, budget distribution, security coordination, and combating street vending. Despite the agreement, the future of this collaboration is uncertain, especially with the upcoming 2030 elections, where Rojo de Vega is seen as a strong opposition candidate.
