San Juan de Sabinas, June 14. In an unusual tour with the participation of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and his successor, Claudia Sheinbaum, the president highlighted the historic significance of the fact that, for the first time in 200 years, a woman will preside over the country.
"And it's not just that a woman became president, but that she became president by the will of the people, that she has experience, that she's well-prepared, and that she has a high academic standard. She has a doctorate, because some of us earned a bachelor's degree—in my case, by miracle. She earned a master's degree and then a doctorate," he emphasized.
In this coal-mining region, before the families of the miners who died in Pasta de Conchos, the president showered his successor with praise, causing the crowd to burst into a chorus of "Claudia, Claudia."
López Obrador spoke from the lectern on the left side. Sheinbaum, visibly pleased with López Obrador's words, smiled and thanked the crowd for the ovation they had given her, a result of the presidential congratulations
