  • She emphasized the potential of Mexican women and the country's workforce, both domestically and in the United States.
  • Sheinbaum linked the "fourth transformation" to ideals of freedom, social justice, and democracy, framing it as the essence of the Mexican people.

President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo has reiterated that Mexico's ongoing political movement, known as the "fourth transformation," is fundamentally dedicated to fostering an independent and sovereign government. Speaking at an event for the "Mujeres Bienestar" (Women Welfare) pension program in Rรญo Grande, Zacatecas, Sheinbaum highlighted the boundless potential of Mexican women and the nation's workforce.

"There is nothing that can stop us, Mexican women. Women can be whatever we want to be; to girls, to young women, always fight for your dreams. There is nothing that stops us, women," Sheinbaum declared. She extended this sentiment to the entire Mexican population, stating, "And there is nothing that stops us, Mexicans. Mexico is a great country, and Mexican men and women are hard workers here in our country and also across the border in the United States."

Sheinbaum firmly positioned the "fourth transformation" as a movement championing Mexico's independence and sovereignty. "In the fourth transformation, we fight because Mexico is an independent country. Mexico is a sovereign country, we fight for freedom, for social justice, and for democracy; that is the people of Mexico, that is the fourth transformation of public life," she articulated.

Her remarks were made in the context of ongoing discussions and legal proceedings involving prominent figures, including Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, governor Rubรฉn Rocha Moya, and Senator Enrique Insunza. The article also briefly mentions a separate legal development concerning an amparo filed by "El Mataperros," a leader of "Los Zetas" imprisoned in Altiplano.
