CNTE maintains protest camp on 20 de Noviembre Avenue; follow the minute-by-minute

The National Union of Education Workers (CNTE) continues its protest, maintaining its encampment on 20 de Noviembre Avenue in the heart of Mexico City. The teachers' union is engaged in ongoing negotiations with federal government officials, including the Secretaries of Public Education and Government, and the director general of ISSSTE.

This latest round of dialogue follows a meeting last Friday between the CNTE's Oaxaca leadership and federal and state authorities, which reportedly concluded without reaching any agreements. In response, the CNTE established its protest camp on Monday across several streets in the Historic Center of Mexico City as a tactic to exert pressure during the negotiations.

The National Union of Education Workers (CNTE) will hold a negotiation table this Tuesday at 10 a.m. with the heads of the Public Education Secretariat, Mario Delgado; Government, Rosa Icela Rodríguez; and the general director of ISSSTE, Martí Batres.

On the ground, numerous tents belonging to the dissident teachers are visible along 20 de Noviembre Avenue. Observers have noted a continuous arrival of more teachers, equipped with luggage, overnight gear, and additional tents, reinforcing the protest site. Access to and from the National Palace area remains heavily secured by security forces due to the teachers' ongoing demonstration.
