El UniversalIndependentProgressive5 hr. ago

Senator Gerardo Fernández Noroña of Morena has criticized the election process of Higinio Martínez as the new president of the Senate, calling it a 'major mistake.' He accused the selection of Martínez of being a result of 'connivance' with the opposition rather than respectful engagement. Noroña, who recently stepped down from the Senate presidency but had hoped to return, claimed the choice was made outside of formal procedures and lacked consensus. He warned that such a leadership style would strengthen attacks against President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s administration (4T).
