People protested against President López Obrador
Yesterday, some protestors drove through major cities to protest against President López Obrador; however, the President’s supporters used the protest to criticize the opposition by saying that they drive luxurious cars and want a coup d'état. At least this was the case of Ricardo Monreal , who told protestors to express themselves during the 2021 election. On the other hand, the block formed by opposition parties has another agenda: COVID-19, issues at the Health Ministry, and questions that haven’t been answered by health authorities.

The question is who will take the position? Moreover, there is another issue: the U.S. has been complaining about the lack of wastewater treatment in Mexico.
