In Oaxaca, political tensions have intensified with accusations directed at political groups leading a series of announcements against the governor, related to issues in health care and state security. These groups are pointed out as responsible for negative situations in the region, according to close sources.
Criticism has reached political figures such as Salomón Jara, the current governor, who is being attacked in a smear campaign. In this scenario, the Murat family, particularly José Murat, former leader of the PRI and father of Senator Alejandro Murat, is alleged to be leading this campaign against Jara's administration, focused on health and security issues.
Although Alejandro Murat, former governor and current senator, was backed by the ruling party in the 2024 elections with support from Claudia Sheinbaum, the current president, tensions remain among different political sectors in Oaxaca. Some claim that there are sectors seeking to maintain political power, generating internal conflicts in the region.
On the other hand, the ruling party highlights Claudia Sheinbaum's recent visit to the state, in which coordination in health care among different state entities was reaffirmed. Despite these efforts, political differences have increased in recent weeks, with accusations against the Murat family for discrediting Salomón Jara.
Amid these tensions, the criticisms of the current governor towards the Murat family, both father and son, who have had notable political roles in Oaxaca in the past, are emphasized. These political disputes prevail in the region despite attempts at reconciliation with different political sectors.
Salomón Jara has maintained his critical stance toward his predecessors in office, generating a confrontational scenario in the political arena of Oaxaca. The political situation in the state remains tense, marked by accusations, smear campaigns, and differences that persist among various political actors in the region.
