  • PRI president Alejandro Moreno urged PAN, Movimiento Ciudadano and other opposition forces to form a coalition for the 2027 federal elections.
  • Moreno accused Morena’s government of leaving Mexico divided, indebted, stagnant and affected by violence, while attacking media and opposition freedoms.
  • He acknowledged past mistakes by the PRI in government and promised the party would not repeat them.

Alejandro Moreno used the presentation of President Claudia Sheinbaum’s second government report to call for a broad opposition alliance in Mexico. The PRI leader urged all “free” parties and lawmakers to unite, defeat Morena and remove its congressional majority in the 2027 federal elections.

Moreno appealed directly to the PAN and Movimiento Ciudadano, saying Mexico’s difficult situation left no room for narrow party interests or political calculations. He described Morena’s eight years in government as having produced a country that is divided, fractured, indebted, stagnant and immersed in violence.

This government has no national project, no answers, no ability to govern and no direction.

“This government has no national project, no answers, no ability to govern and no direction,” Moreno said. He accused the administration of facing public rejection and international disrepute, and alleged that it sought to silence independent media, destroy opposition voices and cancel basic freedoms.

There is no room for indifference. We must fight for the people, for the states, for the municipalities and for the entire nation.

Moreno also conceded that the PRI had made mistakes when it previously held power. He said the party could be loved or hated, but promised that “we will not make them again.”
