Mexico submerged in pandemic corruption due to 4T: Ignacio Morales Lechuga; 'AMLO will face justice someday,' he says

Ignacio Morales Lechuga, a distinguished lawyer and former Attorney General of Mexico, has sharply criticized the current administration, stating that Mexico is "submerged in a pandemic corruption" due to its policies. Morales Lechuga, who has had an extensive career in law and public service, including serving as Attorney General of the Federal District and later as the Attorney General of the Republic, made these remarks in an exclusive interview.

Morales Lechuga, who also served as Mexico's Ambassador to France, expressed his concerns about the state of justice and governance in the country. He emphasized that while the Constitution itself does not falter, individuals within the system can compromise its integrity. "The Political Constitution of the United Mexican States does not prostitute itself, nor has it stopped functioning, but rather, we who stop functioning or prostitute ourselves are men," he stated.

His critique extends to the current political leadership, with Morales Lechuga suggesting that President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) will eventually be held accountable. "AMLO will face justice someday," he asserted, reflecting a deep dissatisfaction with the perceived levels of corruption under the current government, referred to as the "4T" (Fourth Transformation).

Morales Lechuga's career includes significant roles such as Secretary General of Government of Veracruz, Rector of the Escuela Libre de Derecho, and President of the Colegio de Notarios Públicos del Distrito Federal. He also ran for governor of Veracruz in 1998. His comments highlight a critical perspective on the current administration's impact on corruption and justice in Mexico.
