The national leader of the PAN, Jorge Romero, urged the President of the United States, Donald Trump, to specify the names of Mexican politicians he accuses of having links to drug trafficking. During the National Council session of his party, Romero demanded that Trump clarify who he is referring to and highlighted the importance of the Mexican government acting on concrete evidence and accusations from another country.
In the opening speech, Romero criticized the lack of action by the previous Morena government regarding the growth of organized crime in Mexico. He emphasized that it is publicly known that organized crime significantly grew in various territorial areas during that period. Furthermore, he underscored the PAN's position against a possible establishment of a totalitarian state in the country and the politicization of justice through judicial reforms proposed by Morena.
In the economic sphere, Romero warned about Mexico's dependence on a single trading partner, stressing the need to diversify exports and strengthen relationships with other regions as a preventive measure against a potential trade war with the United States. He proposed strategies such as import substitution, promoting the consumption of national products, and an intelligent tariff policy to protect Mexican productive sectors.
Similarly, Jorge Romero called on Mexican citizens to unite in the defense of democracy and freedoms, urging them to contribute to building a better country. He emphasized that, in the face of external economic threats, the PAN will be committed to defending Mexico's interests. In his words, 'the homeland comes first because it transcends us; it is more than a government, a party, or a political color; the homeland is all of us.'
