Sao Paulo – To understand the moods of Mexicans, the Zócalo – the square of the Constitution, the beating heart of Mexico City is the best thermometer. Sunday night, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, 64, better known as AMLO, chose him as the scene for his first speech as President of Mexico, beginning with the phrase " for the good of all, first the poor, "the zócalo brimming with men and women celebrating the first, the historic victory of a" truly leftist man "and always" close to the movements of the more humble. "
Here are some of the phrases collected by television reporter Televisa after the official that AMLO had taken 53.4% of the vote, having distanced rival Ricardo Anaya from the National Action Party (PAN), more than 30 percentage points, a huge amount. A turning point in the counter-trend if it is considered that the model of Bolivarian socialism on the continent is maintained by force only in Venezuela, Nicaragua and Bolivia, while that. it has been gradually abandoned almost everywhere in the rest of Latin America. , the same Zócalo was filled with tearful Mexicans for the "global curse of the fifth game", which also in Russia 2018 will remain only a chimera for the Azteca after the defeat against the Seleçao. Joy and tears, ups and downs, politics and sports, the war on drugs and the increasingly violent cartels of narcosis, the United States in the north and Guatemala in the south. The everyday life of Mexicans has always been made of contrasts, perennial in the modernity that the liberal Benito Juárez tried to introduce into the country in the second half of the nineteenth century and the traditions of a rural world bound to symbols of cultures millennia more than
López Obrador was able to interpret also the symbolic aspect of his fellow citizens and, unsurprisingly, the night of triumph chose the Zócalo to make his first statements and launch this that he renamed reconciliation "it is unclear whether among Mexicans, ideological models or economic paradigms." A plan for reconciliation and peace for Mexico "- he said – in which Human rights representatives, religious leaders and the United Nations will be convened.
No one yet knows exactly what AMLO wants to do, even if "reconciliation" is nothing. other than the versio Mexican n of the "letter to the Brazilian people" made public by Lula in 2002 to calm the markets, reduce the fears of foreign investors and block speculation on the exchange rate
AMLO there, since its settlement will have place only the first of December next while, until then, will continue to occupy Los Pinos, the presidential residence, Enrique Peña Nieto. Perhaps the worst president of the Institutional Revolutionary Party, who ruled from 1928 to 2000 and from 2012 to today. His failure in the fight against narcotic violence and corruption partly explains the triumph. But perhaps the best ignorant marketing man of López Obrador was Trump. The president has even dedicated a book to Donald. And so in front of someone who "talks about Mexicans like Hitler and the Nazis made Jews" – AMLO dixit referring to Donald López Obrador could also be the first Mexican president of the Communist Party. Then the Mexican bursts to the right with a slogan – "the homeland first" – reminiscent of Trump's America. From now until 2020 we will see good ones on both banks of the Rio Grande / Bravo with the AMLO-Trump presidential binomial.
