Tense Senate Session Escalates in Mexico

The session in the Senate became tense when the leader of the PRI, Alejandro 'Alito' Moreno, and Gerardo Fernández Noroña, president of the Board of Directors, had a confrontation. The reason was Moreno's refusal to give the floor to Noroña during a statement.

Lucía Trasviña, a senator from Morena, intervened to calm the tempers. Fernández Noroña stated that he has always respected all senators, but made it clear that he would not allow himself to be treated with disrespect. Ignacio Mier, also from Morena, criticized the PRI, including Moreno, whom he called a 'grave digger.'

In the midst of the discussion, Moreno reminded Mier that he was also president of the PRI. There was an exchange of strong words and challenging gestures between the two sides. After the debate on a constitutional supremacy reform, tempers flared, leading to physical altercations and shouting, with Noroña and Moreno being the focal point of the most tense moment.

Moreno expressed his confidence that the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation 'will strike down' the judicial reform. Tensions continued to rise, with accusations and shouting among members of the different parties present in the session. The confrontation was intense, highlighting the division and political tension in the Senate of Mexico.
