26.01.22 Stenographic version of the morning press conference of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador

2021: Year of Ricardo Flores Magón, precursor of the Mexican Revolution

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Good morning.

Well, in today's program, like every Wednesday, we open with who is who in the lies of the week, will expose Elizabeth García Vilchis, and then we open for questions, answers, and at half past eight will beWith us the candidates for the General Secretariat of the Pemex Union, as we have been doing since Monday, five colleagues come today.

Then, we go with Elizabeth.

Ana Elizabeth García Vilchis: Good morning, Mr. President, Companions, Companions.

Today we bring three notes.The week was loaded, but we will summarize it.

The first, it is false that 20 thousand trees have been carved to build the Mayan Train on the Camellón on the Cancun-Playa del Carmen Highway.From the announcement of the change of stretch 5 of the Mayan train, between Cancun and Tulum, media such as reform, 24 hours, political animal and digital platforms such as the list, sopitas, López-Dóriga and the clarinet Aguascalientes published notes denouncingThe alleged felling of 20 thousand trees in the Riviera Maya for the construction of the Mayan train, which is false.

First, no jungle trees have been talked to build the Mayan Train, trees have been relocated and transplanted on the federal highway 307 Cancun-Tulum.The National Fund for the Promotion of Tourism, better known as Fonatur, reported that trees of species such as Siricotes, Cedros, Ceibas and Palmas were rescued, which have been transplanted to public spaces, avenues and parks of Playa del Carmen, Puerto Morelos and Cancun.

The construction of the Mayan train is done respecting the environment and the rights of the communities, as well as the owners of the land where the work passes, which means development for the country and justice for the southeast, but of course there were no lack ofThe misinformators in social networks who echo this lie, ensuring that there was echocide and felling of thousands of trees.Here we see characters like Joaquín López-Dóriga, Chumel Torres, Max Kaiser, former President Felipe Calderón and Monero Rictus.

Next Please.Follow the campaign against electrical reform, the lies follow, they say that electrical rates will increase, that clean energy will be reduced, which will aggravate global warming, it is only necessary to say that electrical reform is a danger to Mexico.

On January 17 of this year, Parliament opened in the Chamber of Deputies to discuss the electrical reform proposed by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.From this moment on, the media misinformation campaign, columnists, politicians, non -governmental organizations, which disseminate lies in their attempt to confuse the population, but how nothing works now they distribute videos through social networks in social networks inThose who blame the electrical reform of causing the end of the world.

Well, even the Antad, which is the National Association of Auto Service and Departmental Stores, offered a press conference in which members assured without any basis that with the electrical reform the energy prices will rise up to up to 40 percent, andthat this would also affect products and services.That is also false.

The association defends that the chains of department stores pay less for electricity than Mexican families, also defend the illegal and dirty contracts of energy companies, which thanks to the reform of Peña Nieto do not pay for the transmission or other services thatprovides the Federal Electricity Commission.

Behind these notes are the interests of an industry that profit from the environment and with the infrastructure of the CFE, so we must understand the synchronized swimming of El Financiero, Reforma, El Universal, Citizen Report, Indigo Report, Informative Plan, Expansion,The Latinus Platform, MVS News and Forbes Mexico, among others, who hastened to disseminate said information.

However, the notes do not say that the reform is intended to recover the rectory of the state of the electricity industry to guarantee an energy transition and low rates for the population.The electricity market will be maintained, but it will be governed by the public interest, that of the people of Mexico and not of the companies that only seek profits at the expense of the environment and the popular economy.

To understand this, let's see what the self -basting permits are today defending the Antad and store chains such as Oxxo to continue paying less for electricity.Here we see the graph, thus pays the light in Mexico a house of a Mexican home, pays the light in five pesos with 20 cents, while Walmart to a weight with 70 cents and oxxo to a weight with 80 cents.

Self -supply permits were originally granted so that large factories and stores would generate and consume their own electricity, but expanded their capacity and created an illegal parallel market where some permit holders simulated having a dollar partners to sell that electricity using the transmission lines of the transmission of theFederal Electricity Commission to transport it from one region to another without covering the transmission and supply costs.

Today there are 239 Centrals of Self -Bast.

Remember that 80 percent of the energy produced by self -basting societies and independent producers do so with fossil energy and only 20 percent with clean energy.

That is one of the greatest lies of this campaign against reform, because they say that private ones produce with clean energy and that the CFE does it with dirty energy, but remember that the Federal Electricity Commission produces 55 percent of energyclean of the country and is about to increase this capacity.Those who oppose electrical reform in the background are defending a market model like the one in Spain.

Let's look at the graph where the cost of electricity falls to the consumer, where prices increase every day, generating a social and economic crisis that only benefits companies and politicians.By the way, those companies there are the same ones who want to impose their interests here in our country.

Next Please.Lies against fans produced in Mexico by Conacyt to attend the COVID-19.Emeequis magazine published on January 17 a report entitled '4T fans with delays on costs and gifted to Cuba', in which he states that the fans produced by Conacyt in alliance with Mexican companies had delays on costs and that 200 of themThey were given to Cuba.

The magazine makes signaling and false statements with incomplete or misrepresented information about the development and performance of Ehécatl 4T and Gätsi medical devices.The fans were delivered in record time in just five months, when the normal development time is three to five years.

To date, thousand 130 fans have been manufactured and 85 public hospitals have been distributed in 24 states of the Republic.With Ehécatl 4T and Gätsi fans, 15 thousand patients have been treated with more than one million 100,000 hours of use without registering incidents, they are verified by the COFEPRIS and the patents have been registered.They are proudly Mexican fans.50 Gätsi and 150 Ehécatl 4T fans were donated to Cuba in August 2021.

In sum, in addition to saving lives at risk by COVID-19, 100 percent Mexican fans ehécatl 4T and Gätsi, developed with the highest standards and biomedical engineering and security, feel the foundations for a national scientific and technological base industry, which encourages economic growth and benefits the people of Mexico.

Well, Mr. President, so far our section, but finally we want to inform you that they have reached the mail and social networks of the 'Who is who in the lies of the week' messages from conscious citizens who denounce false news and provide information.Our team is verifying the materials, but in advance thanks to those who have authentically sent us their reports.

The times are changing and now the Government of Mexico governs with the people, that is also the participatory democracy and that is why we call them to be attentive and not to be fooled by lies and manipulation.

Thanks, president.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: the partner, the companion, the companion, the partner and then you.There they remember.

In addition, as an unwritten rule we do not repeat ourselves, that we must not repeat itself, that we give opportunity to all.

Question: Good morning, president;Good morning, licensed.

Eduardo Esquivel Ancona, SDP News.

My first question would be, Mr. President: What position will your government take before the decision of a judge who issued, resolved, precautionary stockings to stop the sale of Banamex, from Citibanamex by Oceanography?

It must be remembered that in 2014 an event of great corruption was uncovered in which the Oceanography company requested 585 million dollars to Citibanamex;They gave them to them, but they put invoices that were wrong, they were altered, that were not true, of Pemex, and for those invoices they gave them 585 million and only covered 185 million, that is, a fraud of 400 million dollars.

This orchestrated fraud, because the main affected was not the bank, but also Pemex, that is, it was a collateral damage to Pemex, the treasury, because this Oceanography company had already been accused since 2005, 2006 by the Superior Audit of the FederationAnd it was fined for 24 million because it altered the costs to Pemex.

So, this affected Pemex and this is not yet resolved, they are demanding five thousand and so many millions of dollars to resolve this case, and then Citibanamex says it is not true, but this could delay the sale of the bank and it would be astone in the shoe for sale.

And you have to remember who were when this happened.The chamba cost the director of that time, General of Citibanamex, was Javier Arrigunaga, because he did not clarify well how that position was, and there were several people who were immersed in that fraud and oceanography was the spoiled company of Fox, of the government of the government ofFox, from the Calderón government, had a very large expansion.

That would be my first question.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Yes, we are going to facilitate procedures to carry out the Banamex operation, we care, we are interested.Therefore, in what we can help with the purpose of not blocking, that it is not delayed, that there are no dilatory tactics, we will be pending, and if necessary then we will request the intervention of the Judiciary with the purpose ofthat legal matters are resolved.

All this that you are raising is true, there are these litigation that have to do with Oceanography, which was a company, in effect, favorite during the Fox and Calderón government;They were given many contracts for direct allocation and also had support from the Ministry of Finance, and that operation that you mentioned in credits and falsification of invoices, a litigation of corruption in the dome was carried out, as it was before.

Let's see if what the Oceanography of Contracts received during the Fox and Calderón government is not out there in my book.All this for young people, because they must know where we come from, right?We are leaving the swamp, the mud of neoliberal or pillage policy.

Already as a complement, the owner of Oceanography gave watches, I already said it here, of one million dollars;A clock, cousin brother, one million dollars, more than 20 million pesos, a clock.He sent to make special series, when the 200 years of Independence, a commemorative series to a clock factory, of the most famous;He came out even in luxury articles magazines, when frivolity predominated.

Notice that until that we have changed, fortunately, because now there is more moderation.Before that was like something normal, showing luxuries, extravagances;Well, from the same government, buy an airplane that had no obama, but this was the elite, at that time Mexico was from the cities, the capital, Mexico City, capital of our Republic, where they were most soldluxury articles in the world.A waste, it was the elite of extravagance, all that happened.And now that this situation occurs, because there they return with the judges and the same trap, the same procedures;However, that doesn't work.

And we care about the sale of Banamex for some reasons and we think that an exemplary purchase can be carried out, in a very respectful way, although it is those of the bank who are going to tender, but in what they haveWhat to do with the Treasury, with the National Banking and Securities Commission ... and some recommendations from our we would like, for example, that it would be Mexican, that is a point, that it would Mexicanize, that is, that the owners were Mexican majority partners,That is something we would like.

The second is that those who buy have economic solvency to support Banamex customers, current customers and futures.

The third is that they do not have fiscal debts with the SAT.

Point four, taking advantage of your question, is to pay taxes to Mexico, the Public Treasury;That does not happen what happened when they sold Banamex, that those who sold did not pay a tax pennies, not, they have to pay taxes.

And point five is that we want the cultural, artistic fund of Banamex to be for enjoyment and for the benefit of Mexicans, for exhibitions, museums, where Mexicans can know the works that the fund has.We do not want that fund to go abroad or to stay as a private fund.

Here in the palace, the great painters of Mexico, especially Diego Rivera, but did Orozco and did Siqueiros, painted for the people.Muralism is so that we can all appreciate art, enjoy art, that is the difference of mural painting in relation to easel painting, it is not so that in the houses where people live with more resources, because they have works ofThe great artists that the people never see them.Muralism is for everyone, so Mexican muralists are great, very large.

So, under those conditions ... I don't know if you found ... let's see, there is, yes:

‘The faithful image of the dispensed and corruption of the governments of Fox and Calderón is represented by the case - even and badly clarified - of the Oceanography company - to which you refer - and its majority partner, Amado Yáñez Osuna Osuna.This company, supported by raised politicians and corrupt officials of Petróleos Mexicanos, received contracts and services with stratospheric profits.His boom period coincides with the 12 years of the governments of ... ’a party.

"In these two sexenios, Oceanography won - between quotes - around 160 tenders - contracts - that gave it income for about three billion dollars.Its fall occurred as of 2014, when Banamex Citibank accused the company and its managers of a fraud of 580 million dollars for falsification of invoices and other documents ’.I mean, you are well informed.

‘Currently, Mr. Yáñez remains in jail and one of his partners, Martín Díaz Álvarez, nephew of the former Secretary of the Treasury, Gil Díaz, is a fugitive,’ when this book was written.

‘The question fits: how with so many influences in this case the law was applied?"Anyway, they did put Yáñez in jail," the answer is that those of Banamex, "Citibank, Citigroup," have more power, more influences and more grips. ".The client's oceanography were wrong, those of a very top.

‘Yáñez distinguished himself by his eccentricities and privileges, private planes, soccer teams, yachts, luxury cars’.

Let's see, young people know that there are characters from the elite of Mexico who have yachts that cost 250 million dollars?250 million dollars.

How much is this in pesos?Help me.

Intervention: Five billion pesos.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: five billion pesos, a yacht of five billion pesos, at that level it was reached during the neoliberal period.

They tell me that when a yacht of these above a port in theNoperth Sea, because those yachts do not even sail in the Gulf of Mexico or in the Caribbean, but there in theNoperth Sea, the residents of that port all arrive at thespring to appreciate the Mexican yacht.

‘Yates, luxury cars, parties in Miami and other extravagances.

‘It is interesting to know that, according to testimonies of those who know him, his great passion is high -end watches.

'While I wrote this text I met a book of the exclusive Switzerland brand Piguet, published in 2012 with reference to the Royal Oak collection in which the watch company speaks of its corporate philosophy, its history and the international celebrities of sport, theshow and art, as well as the super exclusive customers of the firm, including Arabic characters and powerful characters.In a special section of the magazine, Amado Yáñez Osuna appears as a distinguished buyer.’

Already, well, this character that comes out in the magazine with international figures, nothing more is to see how we have achieved that this no longer comes up, because it is an insult;More, when money has a not so clean origin, because he who has money and has done so with effort and work, and in accordance with the law, who has a heritage deserves respect.I am not against, I have always said it, which you invest, the one who creates jobs, against the entrepreneur, not everyone who has is evil;I am against bad wealth, because that is what has led to ruin to the country: the one that a few, in influence, take away their right to well -being, to happiness.That is the background.

Well, it's a matter of imagining ...

Ah.‘He asked that 100 watches be manufactured, specially designed by him, with the logo and corporate colors of the company in the back to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Oceanography.It is commented in the magazine of what the businessman paid for a firm as famous as Piguet, that a special edition of these watches would be manufactured.

‘These watches were not responsible for sale, but for the Lord to give them to clients, friends and politicians.Few people know that later Mr. Yáñez ordered to manufacture with the same Swiss company another special edition that Osa Goliath called, a name with which he baptized one of his great ships of his oil fleet.On that occasion it was a very limited series of gold watches, which finally did not finish paying, the watch company had to take them for sale with another name so as not to incur loss.

‘In summary, Mr. Yáñez is known for acquiring watches of this brand with prices of more than one million dollars each.Yes, you read well, one million dollars per clock.’

That's it.So, we do want no legaloid obstacles or traps to prevent the bank's operation from being carried out.Do you think it's OK?

Interlocutor: Wouldn't it be possible for cultural heritage, but Citibanamex's properties could pass to the Mexican State?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Yes, we have to see exactly, the Treasury has to do with how much they estimate the total value of the bank that these goods cost so that the approach is made, but with the purpose of reaching agreements.

The first thing is, I repeat, to Mexican, there is a way to do it, there are people who could gather resources, and I have been receiving comments in favor of being in the hands of Mexicans.That would be very good.

The other thing that arises is that there is no concentration because it is already quite the concentration, especially ... with all due respect and, I repeat, I am not a chauvinist and we do not want to close the country, we are not against foreigners,But it is not possible that profits do not reinvote in Mexico, the profits of the banks, but go to the places where the venues, the matrices of those banks are.

So, we want to be Mexican, because, although some have not behaved well and have differences with them, and they know, it is public domain, because they are here and are investing.

And before they passed the line because they were allowed, then now they are new rules and most, I would say that almost all ... some, for example, with this energy reform there are wanting to maintain privileges that can no longer be sustained,They are abuses, which allowed them before because they sent, they were like the owners of Mexico, because there was no authentic democracy, they put the rulers, it is still happening in some places.

But we are already in a new stage.Most businessmen, investors, already know what the rules are: you have to pay taxes, no fiscal privileges, no condonations, no abusive contracts, Leoninos, good for them and bad for the nation.So, they are other rules.

So that the consumer bank is in the hands of Mexicans would be very good.

The other, because they have solvency to give security to customers, what we talked about tax payments and cultural heritage.

Interlocutor: Hopefully and the Mexican State can keep the Iturbide Palace and the House of Montejo in Mérida.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Yes, all that must be analyzed, you have to see it.

When the fobaproa made barbarity and a half or, rather, they looted with the rescue of the banks, works of art.Of the muralists who also made easel painting, because to have income, they practically gave them throughout the traffic that there was when the fobaproa, with the rescues, the works of art.Now we will be very aware of all that.

Interlocutor: Thank you very much.

In a second question, I would like to know if you have knowledge of a new Mexican airline headed by José Luis Garza.It has transcended in several ...

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Who?

Interlocutor: José Luis Garza, and that he would be with ... it seems that he was director of Interjet and is getting capitals.This would be a new Mexican line that would be there, in Santa Lucía, in the ‘Felipe Ángeles’.So do you have any knowledge that this version is true?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: I had no information about this.

He knew of a group that was integrating with the former Mexican former, businessmen with the workers who wanted to associate.We see that very well, the one that can create a new area area, not one, several.

And there is future because forecasts ... well, first, that the pandemic is already decreasing, that that is very good, that that was what affected a lot, especially in the human, not only in the material, not only inThe economic.That's good news.

I want to take advantage to call those who are not vaccinated to be vaccinated, if one is vaccinated with both doses and with the reinforcement is one protected, there are no risks with the new variant or the risks of hospitalization are minimal and there are no deaths, this is tested.

I hope and put the graph of the Mexico City that was put yesterday, because we will insist on that, we must be vaccinated, we ask them, to think about it, that there is no damage to the vaccine, which, on the contrary,The vaccine helps.

Check this out.I will insist because, the more vaccinated we are, the more protected.This was what helped us not to have serious problems with the new variant, because we had already advanced.If you remember, because you attend daily, how many times I talked about the fact that we had to get ready for winter? Do you remember, that we had to hurry in vaccination?;Well, that has helped us a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot.

And here is the result, look, this is in Mexico City, information on January 29, three days ago: 325 people hospitalized in Mexico City, 254 not vaccinated, 78 percent.Already clearer, not the water, and I ask the media to help us spread this.

Of hospitalized people, 71 vaccinated, 22 percent;But of these 71, to see the importance of the vaccine, 13 people of the 71 only with one dose, 53 people with two doses and five people with the three doses.So this is very important.

We agreed on Monday to reinforce the Roadrin Brigades, especially in Chiapas, in Guerrero and Oaxaca, to go to the most remote communities.

So, this is also allowing us to recover and we will continue to grow.Then, businesses like airlines will have profitability and hopefully these investment societies are formed.That is invited, workers, pilots, surcharges, office workers are included.That, for example, options are still looking for options so that it does not close, so that it does not fail to aeromar, because it goes to places where other lines do not fly.

We are seeing all that and it is a very good opportunity and we help everyone who wants to invest with this purpose.

Very good, we continue.

Question: Very good morning, president.

Rocío Jardínez, Teleurban and W Radio.

Raise three issues, president.Yesterday that this report on femicides was presented, the data presented by the Secretary of the Government of Enrique Peña Nieto, since 2015 to the current.The figures are alarming because, while in 2015 there were more or less maximum between 28 murders and 85, in this government it is going from 79 to 111 femicides.

We know that these increases can be due to the complaints that have been given by this change also in 2015 of ... in 2012, forgiveness, on a crime of feminicide as such.I would like to know what an objective figure of your government could be to reduce these 79 indices that took place in the last month in 2021.

And also, according to the system, to the Executive Secretariat, the main states where there are femicides because it is the State of Mexico in the first place, Veracruz, Jalisco, Nuevo León and Mexico City, which are also located between the main places.Have you had communication with the governors on this matter?And how far their responsibility comes?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: All help, local authorities, the governors and of course the Federal Government, and the Secretary of Public Security, Rosa Icela Rodríguez.

The data in the case of femicide, because they can be related to the fact that crime as femicide was not classified before.Anyway, it is not a quantitative, numerical issue;No one must die, no woman should be murdered, there should not be femicides, regardless of the number.

So, we will continue to guarantee security, peace, it is our work, and we do everything.We are not indolent, we have convictions, we have principles, especially we are humanists and do not turn our backs on the pains of the like, of others, to the pain of humanity.

Interlocutor: OKEY, President.

Second topic.In this matter of our partner Lourdes Maldonado, murdered, yesterday you told us that she did not stick to this protection that the nation gives, the federal government.Was this a decision of her? First question.

And also, a special research group was already announced at night to clar.Have you put the possibility of calling former governor Jaime Bonilla?He has said that he is demarcated by this matter, is available, but what do you consider?, Would it be necessary to talk to him?

And also to know from you if there is still this possibility that he joined your government, as you had said in December, that this possibility was not ruled out and that it was nothing more like him, that his opinion, thatHis times was taking place.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Yes, look, we will fulfill the commitment to do a thorough investigation, already started this investigation and we are going to inform them periodically, as long as it does not affect us in the progress of knowledge about the possible causes, mobile phones, those responsible, intellectual authors, materials, all this, but we are already working.

And about the other, I would like to say that there is no impunity, but that at the same time we do not get politician in such a serious matter.

Interlocutor: Well, she herself pointed to Jaime Bonilla, that's why she caught our attention.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Yes, but everyone will be investigated, those who consider authority, there is no impunity.

And not to advance, that is, not make summary judgments, to have confidence that anyone is not protected, it is no longer the time of before.Yesterday I said it, we are not the same, I will repeat it, now the Secretary of Security is Rosa Icela Rodríguez, it is not Garcia Luna.And I say this and I even offer apologies because conservatives take advantage of these circumstances and walk buzzing.

I remember that when Claudio X.González was in favor of the privatization of education, in addition to discrediting the teaching, to insult the teaching, just like journalists, to be more exact, of the press, newspapers such as the reform, for example, and the authority, the newspaperReforma took holders saying that there were teachers who won 500 thousand pesos per month, brought notes denigrating the magisterial leaders, that they were alcoholics;Bajezas, without ethics.

So, they said: ‘Children are concerned’.Pure falsehood.No, what they wanted was the privatization of education, that was what was in the background.So now with these unfortunate cases there is a lot of falsehood, a lot of hypocrisy.

So, they have confidence, we will get to the background and we are working with that purpose.

Interlocutor: And then you will see the possibility of Jaime Bonilla in his cabinet?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Yes, but that's another matter.

Why now talk about that?It is like the case of historian Pedro Salmerón, who sends a letter, says the chancellor of Panama, to the Foreign Ministry of Mexico.And then there will be courts such as those of the Inquisition, nothing more because there are complaints of sectors if it is not acted in accordance with the law?

I remember a lot - because yesterday I was seeing that in the networks, who? Well, the conservatives, some facos - I remembered an extraordinary book, which I recommend, by Graham Greene, who wrote in Panama, when Omar Torrijos,And I remembered a comment from Graham Greene about Torrijos when asked about his ideology or if he was a Marxist, and he replies that an interview was not an inquisition.

Interlocutor: And what responded to Panama, president?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: And he said that: "It's as if you accuse you, he says, he said (inaudible) Torrijos to the journalist, as a pedophile, that is, if you have no evidence...

But that is in that book, the general is called, discovering the general.

No, do not get ahead, that is.

Interlocutor: What did Panama ask?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: I don't know, I don't know, but what I mean is: if there are no criminal complaints ...

Interlocutor: But did they reject it, to Salmerón?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: We do not know, that is, I do not know the letter, because.But I don't think that because of the complaints that have to do with ITAM and that they also have to do with the position of conservatism, I have no doubt about that.

Interlocutor: but they did not deny approval, president.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Do you send?

Interlocutor: They did not deny the approval of Salmerón.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: I don't know what they raise.No, that is a procedure, it has not yet been sent, that is, the request.

I was struck that I am already answering.Where are the…?

Interlocutor: Sure, the Senate is missing.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Sure, first is the approval and then passes to the Senate, but it is a procedure.So how in advance?Is that, because conservatism is like that, they do not like someone and to give him strong, to give him strong.And the media, the reform, got even with Pedro's family.

Interlocutor: But willn't it be necessary to reconsider, president?

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador:Nope, because we consider that he is a capable person.I already said it last time, it is one of the best historians in this country, after Katz is the one that has written the best about Villa, about the formation of theNoperthern Division.I recommend your book, it is a doctoral thesis.

But it turns out - because all this has to be known - that he thinks, as others think, that those of the September 23 league were not bad people and a strong opposition is unleashed.That has to be known because it is linked to the September 23 league with the murder, for me improper, of Mr. Garza Sada, and that could not be overcome by certain groups.

I lived it when I proposed, when in the Senate it was resolved that the daughter of Doña Rosario Ibarra was the president of the Human Rights Commission.As Doña Rosario's son had participated in those times when they struggled because there were no freedoms and wanted to open spaces, as he fought in Guerrero, as he fought everywhere, well, well, as was the daughter of Doña Rosario, sister, sisterof a disappeared from that time, in the Senate a campaign against.

I do not know if you remember that they accused even that there had been fraud, yes, that there was a vote of more, there was a count.For a position, but the background was the ideological burden, the rejection.

Well, something similar is this, save the proportions.So, we have to have all the information, because if not, it is the reform, the Bulletin of conservatism, the one that pontifies and says who does not and who does not.So, I am not willing to give in those things.

Now, if there is a trial, if there is evidence and is in the Public Ministry, he is in the judge, he is accused, because how we are going to defend him, in no way.But just for the media campaign, for media lynching?What, do not start to see the damage they cause, not only to him in this case, but to his relatives?

What should not be some respect?What do things from the owners of the media, their relatives, in what corresponds to us, get into the media?No, no, for ethics, out of respect.

It is possible to define a border and take care of the dignity of people, because there is also damage to dignity, moral.

In addition, if there is no evidence, if there are no elements and things are invented ... yesterday I was seeing, I made a clarification to a question of why the change in the direction of Fonatur, and Carmen Aristegui and the reform and others talking about meDisqualified to Jiménez, Rogelio Jiménez Pons.But full distortion.Let's see if the note is not and to see if what is in the note was what I said here.

Interlocutor: President, meanwhile, if you allow me, make my third approach.The WHO expert committee has already recommended vaccinating children under five to 11 years with doses of 10 Pfizer micrograms to combat the coronavirus, this was last week.Know if Mexico will accept this recommendation, if you are going to participate.

And also, finally, if there also the private sector has manifested with you interested to sell vaccines, to be able to join this work.

Thanks, president.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Yes, nothing more than we have to do if that was what the World Health Organization recommended, because I have the information of those responsible for the health sector of our country that maintain even the opposite.

I hope and today, because those of the World Health Organization defined the priorities that are exactly the ones we are carrying out in Mexico.That is, what you raise does not have, according to my information, sustenance, that is, the WHO does not say, but we are going to clarify it and we will do what they recommend us.

Now the most important thing in vaccination, because it is ... look yesterday how many vaccinations, we have not stopped vaccinating and do not start seeing our adversaries, because some lie like they breathe as they breathe.

Let's see, how many vaccinated yesterday? Because what matters most is vaccinated, so we already saw, 530 thousand.To this we are dedicated, but for this policy against the media of conservatism, from the press sold or rented, so we have managed to face the pandemic;That is, apart from the pandemic we have had to face the entire campaign of perverse misinformation, because it is not that they care about people's lives, they care about money, and as there is no longer there, as the deceased Héctor Suárez said, there is no, there is not, there are no, so they are thrown with everything.

Do you want to see how we are worldwide in deaths by the pandemic, what we have achieved by vaccination and act in responsibility?

First, we are in place 10 in the world in disposal, vaccine availability.Let's see if they put it.

And the most significant fact are those deceased according to the population of each country, what we have achieved.Let's see if they put that data, with Carlos.

Jesús Ramírez Cuevas, General Coordinator of Social Communication and Spokesman for Presidency: Meanwhile, we have theNopete of Aristegui.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Let's see, Aristegui's: ‘I am blame to Jiménez Pons for delay in train Maya.Find out.’

Check what I said, it may be that even in the body of the note ... Is there video?No, leave it there.But I didn't say that, I didn't blame it, but they interpreted it.

But it is the same.Let's see, put reform.It is the time of bulletins, we have returned.What is that?Is the same.

I even said that Jiménez Pons had opened the way, but that we needed now to reinforce with more work.

Where is it? There is.Look, the same title and, if you are looking for another, it will be, the same.THE TIME OF THE BULLETINS.Do you remember that?They coincided.

But we were in health, vaccination and death, that is, number of vaccines from all countries, in the tenth place in vaccine availability.But I taught them here because, if not, where are they going to see it?Nopew where they are going to grab it.

And to see the data about deceased.Of the 30 countries with the most deceased, in the 23rd of deaths.That this would not even like to say, that is, this information is very unfortunate, but if I do not put us.But it's Krauze and it's all.

And look, please be well.

And of Latin America, from all over America, Brazil 12, Argentina 17, United States 18, Colombia 19.Over.Paraguay and Mexico.

What are the three countries with the most population in the American continent?

United States, Brazil and Mexico.

So you have to vaccinate us.I think the vaccination policy was successful and of course it was a blessing to have the vaccine in time in the world, because we are seeing that the vaccinated ones have more protection, that was very important, not forgetting it.

Now with the new variant the infections grow, but not hospitalizations and less deaths.Yes there are hospitalization growth, death, but not the same, and this for vaccines.The new variant is not so harmful, but we are seeing that the protection is due to the vaccine.

Well, we are going to ... for tomorrow, because the time has come since the fellow leaders, candidates, candidates for the General Secretariat of the Pemex Union will expose, it is already the third round, they are already coming with us.The recommendation to all workers is that they are pending, listen to the proposals of the classmates, who are welcome, this is your house.José Luis Gómez Hernández, Pablo González de los Santos, Gerardo David Herrera Malagón, Esteban Izquierdo Ávalos and Jorge Martínez Sánchez.So they will expose.

Tell the workers, the workers, who vote free, secret.As you are going to vote on the phone, it is not admitted to be called to meet and vote all together, ‘take their phones and here we vote’.Nope.If there is no signal, look for where the signal is;If they are not at home, look where, go to the mountain and there in a hill they will find the long -awaited signal.But no meeting is free.

Hidalgo said and President Juarez repeated it: ‘The people who want to be free, will be’.The one who has a vocation of Vasallo is an imaginary citizen.

How were the vassals throughout the colonial era, in the three centuries of foreign domination, of Spanish domination?What was the slogan for the vassal?

Obey and shut up.Nope.And freedom, we already know it, it is conquered, it is not implored.

Do not give bad examples to their children, because in addition the boys are very awake, much very awake and they are realizing what we do and, if they see us with vocation of vassals or slaves, they will claim it.You have to be free.

So, here are the fellow leaders and I am very pleased that they are here.Welcome, welcome.And Luisa María Mayor is the one who is going to drive.

Many thanks.Excuse me.

Luisa María Mayor Luján, Secretary of Labor and Social Welfare: Good morning to the media, to which they listen to us.Of course, thank the president of the space.

We are going to resume this very important exercise giving space so that the different contestants, candidates to direct the titular union of Pemex can, through this space that see thousands and thousands of Mexicans, Mexicans, of oil workers, to be able to listen to their proposals.

A basic principle to exercise freedom and union democracy is precisely to know who the candidates are, that there are no blockades, these media limitations, which if they are from the south can hear those of the center, those of the north and that they know who they areAnd which your proposals to win the union leadership, what they propose in favor of workers.

Today we are accompanied by five new candidates and, as we have done in the previous days, in alphabetical order we will give them the floor, each will have five minutes to expose.

And it is not only an exercise for Pemex workers, it is for the country, we are implementing a new model of freedom, of union democracy.As here the president has just exposed, this democracy and this freedom is conquered, so these exercises help us a lot because we are going to make freedom and democracy, it has to be a daily practice, not only to choose the leaders, but alsoFor constant participation also in the negotiation of collective contracts.

Let's give him the floor and start with José Luis Gómez Hernández.Go ahead, five minutes.

José Luis Gómez Hernández, candidate for general secretary of the Petroleum Workers' Union of the Mexican Republic (STPRM): Thank you.Very good morning, companions, media, license, presidium, very good morning to all.

Thanks to the president for the opportunity to express our projects.My name is José Luis Gómez Hernández, I am an active plant worker with 362701 tab, I belong to the Department of Electric Workshop of section number 30 of Poza Rica de Hidalgo, Veracruz.I am 21 years old in Petróleos Mexicanos.

We are in a moment of political and democratic freedom where thousands of oil workers will be done justice thanks to the new labor reform.For the first time we have the power to freely choose our representative, who will guide the steps of a growth of the oil guild.

We all have the commitment to rescue the union sovereignty that is in the power of those who have managed their own and foreign benefit, we cannot allow them to continue violating the rights of each of us and our families.

Enough, we are tired of being lacerated and hurt, which is why these two profiles have been created: the profile of the established social order that until now continues to govern, and the one we are going to put, oil tankers without borders, the new social order.Here is the difference.

That is why the reason that oil without borders has developed a timely project to carry out the eradication of poverty, employment united to the rights of workers and social cohesion, which seeks the well -being of all workers and societyIn itself, but for this happening, several important requirements must meet before the union becomes an important actor and that influences the social policy formulated at the national and international level.

First, we must prepare to be the spokesmen of the broader concerns of workers and society.

It is also essential that the organic basis be renovated and the political support necessary to influence the result obtained at the national and international level is achieved.

Finally, the union will participate in the promotion of human rights and democratic institutions for the economic, social and cultural improvement of its workers.

The union participation in this development process and the maintenance of social cohesion is possibly the most important traditional mandate.

History has taught us that such cohesion can only be maintained in an environment that guarantees a safe income for all interested parties in conditions of freedom and dignity.The union will fight for that mandate by preparing a program based on workers' rights, which will be democratic and as the main points to be treated: eradicate corruption, which is the most important.

Workers need to feel sure that there will be no reprisals when exercising their right, and we refer to the vote.

The previous bad administrations of Pemex colluded with the union leaders do not justify at this time of crisis, that the union has to pay part of the oil disaster invoice.

Promote improvements to labor reforms.Nope permitiremos más humillaciones, ni corrupción, cero impunidad.

We know that all the needs we have, such as the abuse they give to transitory, that they are left without work, we have to be able to eradicate all those things.

And that by law things correspond to us such as patent medications, quality medical care, application to the latest places, decent housing, study scholarships, mortgage loans, among others.

Our commitment is that each of the oil families receive the benefits they deserve.

On the other hand, the union and Pemex will be added to the commitment to contribute to the fulfillment of environmental matters established in the UN 2030 Agenda through sustainable development solutions.

In addition to the above, Petroleros Without Borders has a project of more than 23 points with three central axes, 105 proposals, which are aimed and hand in hand towards the fifth transformation, to develop for the benefit of the oil guild and in support of the people of Mexico, aimed and based on the 2030 Agenda, and with the energy reform that is in our favor with the projects that we know of two mouths and the investment in the refineries.

The Petroleum Workers' Union of the Mexican Republic, we will separate it from the union charrismo.

I, José Luis Gómez Hernández, his friend, server and partner, be of the arduous work that takes place in the oil fields.I come from an oil family that has taught me good values and principles with great humility and honesty.I fulfill the requirements stipulated in the statutes.

I am here to serve and serve our nation.Let us always remember that oil is from all Mexicans.Nopesotros aplicaremos fielmente el lema de Petroleros sin fronteras, que señala: Juntos haremos el cambio.United, we will overcome.

Gomez does fulfill.

Thank you.Blessings.

Luisa María Mayor Luján: We appreciate the participation of José Luis Gómez.And now we are going to spend the floor to Carlos González de los Santos, go ahead.

Pablo González de los Santos, candidate for general secretary of the Petroleum Workers' Union of the Mexican Republic (STPRM): Good morning.

First of all, I want to thank God for allowing me this space and also thanking the President of the Republic, Mr. Andrés Manuel López Obrador, for allowing democracy in the oil union.Similarly, with much regarding the representative, the Secretary of Labor, Luisa María Mayor, for making democracy in our country.

The important issue that is lived today is the elections of the oil union, but I want to make my colleagues known that this topic has not been giving because the times have been exhausted or because it has been the retirement of Carlos Romero Deschamps, the subjectFrom the oil union emanates from the T-MEC, the treaties that are of nations, the countries, the labor reform focuses and is born.

The labor reform is focused and is at this time on the unions that are in Mexico, corruption, and one of the unions headed by corruption is the oil union, we can see it in these elections, there is no even floor, the waythat they are participating.

I address that it was already present, Ricardo Aldana, Romero Deschamps candidate, who is a man who does not meet the requirements, was already presented.It is confirmed, it has been proved that he is a plant worker, but trustworthy, he should not be participating in these elections.

I, for my part, make a call to the director of Petróleos Mexicanos who clarify the parastatal is intervening in this way that only unionized workers can participate.

They are now moving the resources in their favor, it is they who still represent the corruption that remains, that, there of the old Mexico, that they are the ones who still represent what remains of the PRI, because it was they who made fraud,Well Ricardo Aldana, being the treasurer was the one who administered the fraud that was made of Pemexgate of more than 1,850 million pesos that they received directly from the parastatal and that were to invest in the campaign in the year 2000 for the lipstick, which only Carlos RomeroDeschamps delivered 500 million and among them there were 1,350 million that today the goods and resources of the oil union are seized with the parastatal.

But this was approved by the 36 general secretaries that were on this date and among them it was the general secretary of Section 48, César Pecero Lozano.They have been working in Contubernio, because they want to get them out that César Pecero is supposed to be a leftist candidate.That cannot assure us because it was they who also participated for fraud since 2006.Nopes hemos mantenido nosotros en la lucha y no vemos ahorita que haya un piso parejo.

I also address that these people are investigated, what happened to the fraud they head of Pemexgate, there has not been an advance, Carlos Romero Deschamps still has control of the oil union, they have not let us participate in the right wayIt is, they simply gave us a week, we do not have the resources, with the media, with which they are moving today.

This is the only space and we thank the President of the Republic to have allowed us for these five minutes that those are the five minutes of our campaign, which also of my colleagues who are dissent.

I also want to point out that these people were the ones who approved the energy reform and it was strategically.I focus on the oil field in the area of Veracruz and Tabasco.Field 5, president, was a strategic way in 2015 with Romero Deschamps, Ricardo Aldana and those who were in charge in the 36 sections.A field of much production that included field five presidents, the countryIts initial capacity of 100 percent.

On orders and in contubernio of the oil union and those who represented Mexican petroleum at that time, they decided to strangle the wells and kill them so as not to produce and be able to ensure energy reform and say in that way that there was no more production.In this project that we head today at the national level we have the ability to reactivate those wells.

We also call Pablo Gómez, the head of the FIU, to investigate these people who are receiving money from foreign companies, and I can point it directly because we who are involved within union policy know.

I am a representative of Section 48, my name is Pablo González, and we have evidence where César Pizro Lozano is receiving money from Hally Burton managers for this campaign, because they have scheduled to re -deliver what is drilling to these companies.

We also want to ask the president to who in the most attentive way and with much respect this clean democracy can be achieved.

I invite colleagues who have aware of their vote, which is the time, do not let themselves be intimidated and that we put a vote of trust in the people you believe.

Live dignity.

Long live democracy.

Thank you.

Luisa María Mayor Luján: We thank Pablo González de los Santos.And we are going to give Gerardo David Herrera Malagón.Weigh on five minutes, please, go ahead.

Gerardo David Herrera Malagón: Yes, thank you very much.Thank you very much that give me this space and I have been representing the entire oil family.Thank you very much to our Lord President for this window towards the democracy of our union.

I am Gerardo David Herrera Malagón, he represented section 36.

It is very important, I invite you to join a lawsuit that is in the Inter -American Commission on Human Rights, international instances, by friend and companion Raúl Romero Maldonado, José Vega Barragán and also support the nation project of Dr. Dulce María Vázquez.

I will make a small remembrance with the government of Carlos Salinas de Gortari, which began all our union problems there.

By selling to the country, the energy reform with Peña Nieto culminated, in complicity with Antonio Romero Deschamps, which betrayed us.Following how senators approved the Energy and Aldana Reform equal.

The highest authority in our union is not a general secretary, it is a national convention where each and every oil workers think to carry the government and conditions as a union should be carried out.

And within my proposals in the National Convention, the working class will have in the next ... the next leaders will be.I immediately commit to the National Convention, because there are three representatives per section and one by delegation, which would be approximately 108 leaders where workers' proposals, both active partners and can also be invited to retired partners and also putAttention because I would say, and I make the proposal, that transient partners with more than 10 years of age can also participate.

Within these proposals, the collective contract can also be modified, also each and every one of the workers' proposals.It is very important because it is the highest authority within our union and is approved with the workers' vote.We can do it through free, direct and secret vote, and in that way we will ensure a democracy within our union, because Carlos Antonio Romero Deschamps did not do it, in all the time he was rigged and made the conventions in a wayAvara and in a way ... Unfortunately he betrayed us in every way, he sold our collective work contract in 89, sold the Board of Directors because we have no representatives within the Board of Directors, it was one more betrayal, and also betrayed the reform approvedEnergy.

In the way I am proposing, in the convention they will be all the opinions and changes of all workers, that is, it is not the Secretary General is the will of each and every one of the oil workers who for years andFor all this story that we have been dragging ... yes, thanks to our grandparents, I am part of my grandfather, my mother, and by my grandfather and my father, the whole family is oil.

My grandfather was the founder of the Petroleum Workers' Union of the Mexican Republic, I know perfectly the history of our union and we want you to, the members of our union, have the power to change all this corruption that we have been dragging since Carlos Salinas ofGortari in power and took that sovereignty with the energy reform.

We have a seal the workers, we serve the country and we will continue to serve the country.I promise them, no matter if we do not get to the general secretary, but we will change all that because we have in our union.

It is important that the workers open the eyes and that truly this time we have to change not so much the union, but also to the oil industry that have been dragging all that corruption, all those rigged contracts.

It is important and that you participate in the change of oil workers.I invite you to represent your server and make all the change to come to democracy within our union and all those new leaders who enter all sections are also willing to make the Ministry of Finance favor us with the proposal of the proposal ofWhat are we going to be doing and paying healthy accounts for all tankers.

God bless you.,

And it is very little time, but I am at your orders.And hopefully and vote for me because I promise them above all a democracy and a complete change within our union and our industry.

Thank you very much.God bless you.Long live Mexico.

Luisa María Mayor Luján: We thank Gerardo David Herrera.

Let's now go on to give Esteban Izquierdo Ávalos.Go ahead, five minutes.

Esteban Izquierdo Ávalos: very good day, concurrence.

I am Esteban Izquierdo Ávalos, graceful for being a oil worker, I am originally from the municipality of Teapa, Tabasco.My career in the oil industry I have taken it with honesty, transparency and quality in the service.

Companions, colleagues, friends and friends:

The reason why I allow myself to participate in this contest is the extreme need to modify the union structure towards a transformative renewal according to the work needs of the oil guild.

Next, I allow myself to express my commitments for the rest to the statutory and contractual union rights, my proposals are the following:

I have the firm conviction of reducing the actions that generate an act index of labor demands with strong losses in time, money, effort, situation that violates union rights.

I will strengthen with highly specialized personnel the Honor and Justice Commission to receive and, where appropriate, punish the abuse, workplace harassment, in all its discrimination areas.

An internal audit of the union structure is proposed to detect possible acts of corruption, which I commit to extinguish, gentlemen.

There will be a center of complaints, complaints, of the companions of the guild, in order to end with possible acts of union and labor corruption.

Tours will be made in the work centers once a month, highlighting the existing security, health and environmental protection needs that apply.

I promise to analyze and solve one by one the requests according to their needs of the service that are well to put to my consideration.

A digital platform will be created to expedite the process and administrative procedures such as request for renunciable permits, savings fund advances, loans, and so on.

The members of the oil union structure from this moment should be capable, will have to have honesty, honesty, transparency and above all a spirit of service for the benefit of the oil guild.

The statutes will be updated to these needs and the collective work contract in their review will participate all unionized personnel.

We will create a training center where retired personnel will intervene to participate with the purpose of expanding with its extensive experience, valuing the redundancy, well, to prepare the new generations of the oil family, gentlemen.

It will be agreed with the Directorate of Medical Services for continuous improvement in relation to the services it is providing, with the purpose that said service is provided with quality and efficiency.It should be noted that we have a very broad professional investigation in which it can help this area, carry it out.

Retired personnel will be given special and personalized attention, if necessary at home.

We will implement financial support without interest payment to meet emerging needs required by members.

It will be put in a percentage increase in scholarships to personnel and beneficiaries so that they become mandatory through the administrative procedure that allows an activity and with quality of service.

The transitory personnel will be respected the right to apply its definitive to sign a plant at the time to meet the statutory requirements,

I will permanently and gradually encourage culture and sports.

Petroleum trade unionism, its course towards efficient, transparent, merged productivity, benefit of the oil family, we will achieve it, gentlemen.

I invite from this tribune to the union dissent to the unit, without it it is more difficult to achieve it, so I also invite all the unionized personnel to vote consciously for the one they create and that this vote is a benefit for the transformation of the union, forGood from Mexico.

Thank you, medios de comunicación.

Thank you, María Luisa Alcalde, representante de la Secretaría del Trabajo.

And thank you very much, Mr. President, for this opportunity in this forum.

Unity, respect and equity, gentlemen.

Long live Mexico!

Long live all unionized staff!

Thank you very much.

Luisa María Mayor Luján: We thank Esteban Izquierdo.

And finally, we are going to spend the word to our fifth candidate, Jorge Martínez Sánchez.Ahead.

JORGE MARTÍNEZ SÁNCHEZ: Thank you, señora secretaria.With your permission.

Good morning to all.I appreciate the opportunity to the president, Mr. Andrés Manuel López Obrador, to be able to address my companions and companions oil fellow forum.

My name is Jorge Martínez Sánchez, I am a geologist engineer, graduated from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, with more than 35 years as a unionized worker in Section 34.

My knowledge of the Collective Labor Contract and the current Statutes for union allow me to know the legitimate rights of our partners and colleagues.Working together, transparently, honest and listening to the needs of the working base we will transform the union.

My proposals are:

Recover the meaning and scope of the heritage square contemplated in the 1938 Nation project of President General Lázaro Cárdenas del Río, which makes us partners of this great industry.

Reintegrate workers to the PEMEX Board of Directors to regulate and monitor the development of the oil industry and thus avoid future attempts for privatization.

Thank you, gracias, señor presidente, por evitar y rescatar a la industria petrolera.

Guarantee gender parity, which consists in the fact that charges to union officials are 50 percent men and 50 percent women.

Privilege the defense of the collective work contract for the benefit of workers and their relatives.

Guarantee a decent and effective health system.

Propose the basification of transient workers.

That transient workers with more than 10 years of age have the right to mortgage loan.

Freedom to workers to hire mortgage loans with any bank and by imposition of the union.

Propose to the company that to the workers who applied after January 1, 2016 are retired according to the previous retirement scheme and not to the Afores, since from Annex 16 of the collective contract it contemplates that the worker is clustered from That date.

Recover the benefit of the last ranking square for the worker who retires, since this is a trade union benefit.

Build a leadership open to the scrutiny of workers, as well as accountability, transparency, order, control and combat corruption.

The relevance of trade union transparency lies in the link between the PEMEX company authority union, with the purpose of eradicating corruption levels and recovering union confidence, to build an honest union, with principles and values.

Strengthen the transparency and accountability of union fees, since these are currently mortgaged until 2031.

Reactivate consumer stores and union ranches at the national level and thus generate jobs for the people in general.

Transparent management of the management of the resources of the union leadership, which will frequently be presented to the workers, who know what is the destiny of their union installments.

Develop unionized human capital to take advantage of the technology and experience of the Deer Park refinery in the United States and achieve the oil production objectives, mainly gasoline, which Mexico has to import to supply the national domestic market.

Have specialized human capital.

We take advantage of the refinery of Park the specialized knowledge and technology transfer to apply in the Pemex refineries and thus meet the following objectives:

One, regularization of Mexico and the United States.

Two, international quality standards.

Three, international best practices.

Four, control over emissions.

Achieve energy self -sufficiency that guarantees the technological use in the labor of Mexicans and oil tankers.

We have certainty that with unionized and specialized personnel will optimize operational development, efficiency and competitiveness.

Companions and colleagues:

Are sure that I will promote and defend their union rights, social responsibility and job improvement.Let's forget what was left behind and we strive to achieve change.

You have the word and power with your vote to decide the future and define the change of our union.

Thank you por tu voto y tu confianza.Together we will win.

There are more proposals, but for lack of time I invite you to follow me on Facebook such as Jorge Martínez Sánchez or Engineer Jorge Martínez Sánchez.

Thank you, gracias por su atención.

Luisa María Mayor Luján: On the contrary, we thank the five candidates for having accompanied us.

And before concluding, it is very important to continue informing.First, inform that the union has published the extension for registration, all active unionized workers must register to be able to exercise their right to vote.

This record is open until Saturday, as published.Sunday is the electoral closure and next Monday, January 31, the vote will take place.

It is also very important to mention and that we all help inform that all will participate through the electronic vote, subject to 18 ships that were already published here because it is impossible, this has already been published by the company, to be able to make the electronic choice,But we are talking about approximately 100 workers.All and all, the remaining ones, the vote will be through the mechanism and the platform that we have already made known and will be through your phone or any electronic mechanism.

Defending the right is also to participate, inform yourself, the exercise we are carrying out is very important.

And that we all know the new rules, not only is it the case of the oil union, all workers today have the right to choose their leaders freely through free, direct and secret personal vote.

And not only that, there are also clear responsibilities for transparency, accountability unions and gender proportionality.

So we appreciate the participation of those who accompanied us today and we will continue tomorrow with this exercise to be able to ...

José Luis Gómez Hernández: Can I ask anything?

Luisa María Mayor Luján: Tell me.

José Luis Gómez Hernández: We are seeing that the fourth transformation arrived here to the union, because there have been changes, we are aimed at a fifth transformation.

My question is: will the President closely follow the votes?

We know that you and the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare will have the count and the whole process, but will the President continue to face those votes.?

Luisa María Mayor Luján: Well, he has followed very closely.An example, perhaps the most important is this space that is taking place in this rostrum, precisely so that they can express themselves.

It is also very important to know who are the authorities who participate, we had already presented it at some point, but it is important that we all know.

Who organizes the election is the union, it is an internal choice of the organization, but it has an accompaniment by the authority, the authority to monitor the process is a new authority called Federal Center for Conciliation and Labor Registry.This is the authority to which, in case of complaints or complaints, there must be formally submitted to the Federal Center.

Here we had examples in the case for example, of the sectional elections.We inform how more than 700 complaints had been filed for different working participants.

What does it have to evaluate ...?

Esteban Izquierdo Ávalos: licensed ...

Luisa María Mayor Luján: A second.What does it have to evaluate the work center?

You have to end whether or not there is reasonable and, in case it determines that there is a reasonable doubt that union freedom and democracy were not fulfilled, you can call a new choice.

Unlike the first, this election is now carried out by the Labor Center, the union is no longer carried out.

We will continue advancing, we will continue to open these spaces precisely so that people can know their proposals and tomorrow we will have five new participants again and we will conclude the exercise on Friday.

The electronic system is reliable, it was done, the ... say, I schedu.

The aspiration is that it is not used only for this election, but that the Ministry of Labor can make it available to any union that determines through its calls to carry out the electronic vote.We believe it is a reliable procedure.

The president said here that each and one votes for who tells him the conscience, individually, nothing to call in collective and we all vote together, so that there is no violence, so that there is no hauling, so that there is not all these practicesthat we know very well.Electronic vote is a reliable mechanism.

So we call workers who have still registered that they can register to be able to give the phone, email through which they receive the mechanism to vote on Monday, January 31.

Thank you very much a los cinco.
