Después de 11 años no sabemos ya qué decir. A lo largo de este tiempo hemos hablado alto, denunciando la violencia y la barbarie de una clase política coludida con el crimen organizado. Hemos caminado el país entero y la franja este de los Estados Unidos dando voz a las víctimas. Hemos hablado con Felipe Calderón, Enrique Peña Nieto y Andrés Manuel López Obrador. […]
La respuesta de cada uno de esos gobiernos, con sus particulares maneras, ha sido la misma: la simulación, la impunidad, el desprecio y la traición que a lo largo de estos 11 largos años se mide con el sufrimiento de más de 350 mil de nuestros hijos e hijas asesinadas, más de 100 mil de ellas y ellos desaparecidos; más de 4 mil fosas clandestinas descubiertas …
Movimiento por la Paz con Justicia y Dignidad (28 March 2022)After 11 years we no longer know what to say. Throughout this time we have spoken out, denouncing the violence and barbarity of a political class in collusion with organised crime. We have walked the entire country and the eastern fringe of the United States giving voice to the victims. We have spoken to Felipe Calderón, Enrique Peña Nieto and Andrés Manuel López Obrador. […]
The response of each of these governments, in their own particular ways, has been the same: pretence, impunity, disregard, and betrayal that over these 11 long years has been measured by the suffering of more than 350,000 of our murdered sons and daughters, more than 100,000 of them disappeared; more than 4,000 clandestine graves discovered….
Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity (28 March 2022)The devastating effects of Felipe Calderón's militarisation strategy are still felt today, over a decade and two administrations on. Even as the world faced the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Mexican citizens still identified crime (36.5 per cent) and corruption (22.2 per cent) as their top concerns, well ahead of COVID-19 (14.9 per cent) (Consulta Mitofsky 2021, p. 2).
Throughout his presidency, current leader Andrés Manuel López Obrador has remained highly critical of the Calderón regime. In his daily morning press conferences, the president has blamed Calderón for starting the war and compared his government's approach to hitting ‘un garrotazo al avispero a lo tonto’ / a hornets’ nest with a club (Expansión Política, 2022).
