Durango governor denies visa withdrawal; "they are checking why he jumped a yellow alert", says

The governor of Durango, Esteban Villegas Villarreal, denied reports that his U.S. visa was revoked. He explained that during his last trip to the United States, he was detained briefly due to an amber alert triggered by a possible mix-up with someone else having the same name. Villegas stated that authorities are reviewing why the alert was activated and emphasized that he still has his visa. He mentioned that he has traveled to other countries like China and Spain without issues but noted that restrictions could affect travel through U.S. airspace. Villegas expressed intent to show his visa publicly soon and indicated a desire to visit the U.S. again to resolve any concerns.

Bias read (Center): The article presents the governor's statements directly without overtly biased language or selective sourcing. It includes his claims and explanations without apparent ideological framing or emphasis on one side over another.

Why these scores (Factual 85 · Objective 70): The article reports the governor's statements accurately and provides details from his account. It does not contradict the cross-source consensus. However, it presents the governor's perspective without independent verification, leading to potential bias.
