The president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, commented that "we all arrived, and the response is that we found a wall of iron," according to one of the protesters.
The demonstration took place in Mexico City, where a group of women gathered in front of the doors of the National Palace to demand justice in cases of gender-based violence. However, they encountered a strong security presence that prevented them from approaching the building.
Sheinbaum also expressed her concern about the presence of infiltrators among the protesters, which created tension during the demonstration. For their part, the gathered women demanded to be heard and to receive concrete responses to their demands.
The activists have highlighted the importance of having their claims addressed and for effective measures to be taken to prevent and sanction gender-based violence in the country. Despite the difficulties faced, they remain steadfast in their fight for equality and respect for women's rights in Mexico.
