Recently, the decriminalization of abortion has gained relevance in Mexico City, and this has caused a change in the stance of some political leaders. In particular, in the allied party, there have been suspicions towards El Niño Verde, the undisputed leader of this group, for allegedly not being in favor of this initiative.
As suspicions grow regarding El Niño Verde's involvement in the failure of the abortion bill in the local Congress, the head of government, Clara Brugada, has come out in defense of the proposal. Although those in power believe that the current conditions are not conducive to advancing this issue, Brugada's statements could open the possibility of discussing it in the future.
Before the debate intensified, some figures from the Green Party in CDMX had expressed their support for the decriminalization of abortion. The former mayor emphasized the importance of addressing this issue from a health perspective and not criminalizing it.
In the Palacio de Donceles, suspicions and questions persist about the causes of the bill's failure. According to sources, El Niño Verde holds significant power, and confronting him could be more complicated than doing so with the Church.
Other theories suggest that the Archbishop of CDMX, Carlos Aguiar Retes, had influence on the Church's stance against the decriminalization initiative. This ecclesiastical figure wields great authority not only in the capital but throughout the country.
Additionally, there are assumptions about Jorge Emilio González Martínez, a prominent figure within the Green Party, as being responsible for events related to the legislative discussion on abortion in CDMX. Amid these debates, Díaz Polanco is emerging as a possible president of Morena in the city.
