Ricardo Valero is accused of sexual harassment
The Foreign Affairs Ministry heard about the accusations against the former Mexican ambassador to Argentina , Ricardo Valero , who has been accused of sexually harassing a minor .

In the midst of a tense situation sparked by Donald Trump ’s decision to kill Iranian General Qasem Soleimani and the potential retaliation of Iran , we’ll have to wait until lawmakers return to work on January 8. What will foreign experts, such as Porfirio Muñoz Ledo , say in regards to the situation and a quite Congress ? The truth is that both chambers take long breaks as if nothing was happening.
