President Claudia Sheinbaum has pledged continued solidarity and support for mothers across Mexico who are searching for their disappeared relatives. She assured that the government remains committed to efforts to locate missing persons and provide assistance to their families.
Responding to questions about the mobilizations of search collectives in Jalisco and the progress of their demands, Sheinbaum indicated that the Ministry of the Interior is handling the matter as part of institutional follow-up and attention.
Sheinbaum recently spoke with Jalisco Governor Pablo Lemus, though she clarified the call concerned the organization of a World Cup match in the state, not the issues raised by the search collectives. "I called him to see if he needed any additional support from the federal government, and he said everything was fine," she commented.
Reiterating her administration's commitment, the President stated, "They will always have our solidarity, our support, and everything the Mexican government can do to find their relatives, always." She highlighted the ongoing work of federal agencies in localization and investigation, praising the Ministry of the Interior's sensitivity and presence in supporting these groups. "We understand your pain and will always be close, searching for your relatives," she added.
Entendemos su dolor y vamos a estar cerca siempre, buscando a sus familiares
