An important acknowledgment needs to go to Carlos Alvarez of  Zeta who has been furiously  and concisely covering just about every aspect of yesterday's event in Washington D.C. I will post all of his reports a bit later, hands full here:

World Leaders around the globe including the OAS   (which Mexico is a member of ) have condemned the violence we witnessed yesterday and the expectation is that more will join the chorus...with the exception of Putin and few others.

Down here AMLO has not only taken a stand against condemning the pro-Trumpista riots (despite being a member of the OAS), he is opposed  to the censorship of Trump on social media.

 

Despite paying taxes, I cannot be involved in Mexican politics (or for that matter vote), but if I met AMLO I would ask him a couple of questions:

 

1.    Does the OAS represent your stance on this situation or not ?

 

2.    Isn't such  a laissez-faire attitude in this particular situation slightly reminiscent of Neville Chamberland's appeasement accord with Hitler ? 

 

3.   And finally, apparently you thought Trump was your true-blue amigo: then why is it he did not also provide free of charge COVID immunizations for your people...(and I mean everyone)? Particularly since you are doing his biding by restraining the Migrantes? 

 

Stay safe AMLO, please wear a mask.
