President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that this Friday she will meet with her entire cabinet to finalize the details of the 'Michoacán Plan,' which will be presented next Sunday. Sheinbaum stated that the government will not leave Michoacán. She also mentioned the federal government's presence in the state through welfare programs, the National Guard, and the security cabinet, emphasizing a recent commitment to strengthen the strategy. The president said it is necessary to reach out to young people and do everything possible to prevent any young person from getting close to criminal groups. Sheinbaum aims to face the violence crisis in Michoacán with a new 'Plan for Peace.' She avoided self-criticism of her strategy, reminding that for her government, the focus is not only on confronting violence with security but also 'addressing the causes and not abandoning the youth.' Sheinbaum also addressed criticism, stating that the right heavily criticized the 'hugs, not bullets' policy, claiming it was hugging criminals, but no one proposed that. 'False,' she added.
