Aid to Latin America and the Caribbean managed by the State Department amounted to just over 2 billion in 2023, the most recent year for which an exact figure is available. In Mexico, the most affected organization was Mexicanos contra la Corrupción (MCCI), led by María Amparo Casar, and at one point by Claudio X. González.
Of course, with the help of the PAN coordinator in the Senate, Ricardo Anaya, who united them in the past (2018). Other civil society organizations, such as México Evalúa led by Edna Jaime and Artículo 19 by Leopoldo Maldonado, have already joined this possible alliance, other NGOs deprived of USAID funds for Mexico, and those who did not bend to support Guadalupe Acosta Naranjo in the founding of Somos México with the remnants of the PRD, the widows of PAN and PRI, and former electoral councilors of INE and IFE. In return, Maynez and the leadership of Movimiento Ciudadano demanded Claudio X.'s mediation for Alito Moreno Cárdenas's PRI to stop the attacks on the emecistas, if he does not want the history of 2024 to repeat itself in 2027: where the opposition would be divided into two blocks, having to choose between oranges and others.
It shares anti-Lopez Obradorism and the hives over the state governments of Morena, which concede them not a single achievement, where the differences in style begin with the federal administration of Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo and the months of her government. Álvarez Maynez is preparing the MC strategy in Edomex using Harfuch as the villain. However, as this editorial learned at the leadership of Movimiento Ciudadano, both Maynez and Claudio X. are willing to look ahead in the midterm election and perhaps try an electoral coalition in 2027 in several states.
That money for civil society organizations could be financed by the budget of political parties. Sources familiar with the negotiations alerted this editorial about the reunion between X. González junior and the newly appointed national leader of Movimiento Ciudadano, Jorge Álvarez Maynez, who after last year's presidential campaign had found themselves in conflicting positions.
While Claudio X. shared the tone of the campaign accusing the emecistas of betrayal for not joining the presidential candidacy of Xóchitl Gálvez, Maynez insisted that the PRI was unnecessary in that alliance, pointing against Alito Moreno Cárdenas and his group, particularly for the actions of PRIism in Nuevo León against Governor Samuel García. The above placed both politicians in two positions in the competition but never completely separated them.
The executive order of Donald Trump, called "Reevaluation and Realignment of U.S. International Aid," caused shock worldwide. Casar revealed that at its peak, MCCI received 1 million dollars from USAID, for 2024.
