Morena CDMX leader says departure from post is inevitable, timing uncertain

Héctor Díaz Polanco, the current leader of the Morena party in Mexico City, acknowledged that his eventual departure from the position is inevitable. Speaking at a press conference, he described predicting the timing of such an exit as one of humanity's most interesting tasks. "Maybe it's soon, maybe it's long, but nobody is thinking about that," Díaz Polanco stated, suggesting that while his departure is certain, the exact timeline is not an immediate concern for the party, despite media speculation.

Regarding potential alliances, Díaz Polanco confirmed that Morena is not considering breaking ties with the Green Party and the Labor Party (PT). However, he noted that direct discussions have not yet occurred, partly because alliance matters are typically handled at a national level. He stressed the importance of clear communication, stating, "you can't do telepathic politics; if you want something, you communicate it."

Díaz Polanco emphasized that any future alliances must align with Morena's core principles, specifically mentioning the prohibition of nepotism. He added that there are no significant issues with the Green Party, and any past conflicts have been resolved. Local deputies present at the press conference also voiced their support for Mexico City's Head of Government, Clara Brugada, and criticized efforts by various groups to promote a narrative of chaos. Morena CDMX called for dialogue and peace, ensuring residents can enjoy upcoming events and infrastructure projects.

Nobody in their right mind would suggest breaking the relationship with the Green Party or the Labor Party, which has accompanied us on several occasions.
