  • Morena deputies accuse the PAN party of orchestrating legal challenges against the Cablebús Line 5 project.
  • They claim this tactic mirrors the PAN's past opposition to President AMLO's initiatives.
  • The deputies identified PAN's national leader Jorge Romero and CDMX president Luisa Gutiérrez as being behind the amparos.

Deputies from the ruling Morena party have accused the opposition National Action Party (PAN) of being behind legal challenges, known as amparos, filed against the Cablebús Line 5 project. The Morena legislators claim this is a familiar tactic used by the PAN.

According to the Morena deputies, the PAN has a history of employing similar legal strategies to obstruct initiatives proposed by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) during his tenure. They assert that the current opposition to the Cablebús project follows the same pattern.

The Morena party specifically pointed to Jorge Romero, the national leader of the PAN, and Luisa Gutiérrez, the party's president in Mexico City, as the individuals orchestrating these legal challenges. The deputies stated that these figures are the masterminds behind the amparos aimed at halting the progress of the Cablebús Line 5.
