Sheinbaum Links CNTE's Election Boycott Threat to Right-Wing Politics

Mexico City's Head of Government Claudia Sheinbaum equates CNTE's election boycott threat with the right-wing. Sheinbaum addressed the CNTE's planned boycott of the upcoming judicial elections, drawing parallels to the right-wing's stance. She questioned the union's demand to repeal the 2007 ISSSTE law, highlighting its irrelevance to the judicial elections. While acknowledging her opposition to the ISSSTE reform, Sheinbaum explained that reversing it would negatively impact public finances. She confirmed that dialogue with the CNTE would proceed through designated government officials, including the Secretaries of Gobernación and Education. This approach avoids direct engagement with the CNTE leadership, focusing instead on official channels for communication and negotiation.
