The warmth of Monreal

Ricardo Monreal Ávila has only broken the rules of the game once. He did it a quarter of a century ago, when Andrés Manuel López Obrador convinced him to challenge PRI discipline and join progressivism. There were two years left for the PAN to win the Presidency, more because of the deficiencies of the PRD than because of the strength of Foxism.

Then the goal was to get the PRI out of Los Pinos. Now, the leader of the morenista majority in the Senate of the Republic acknowledges facing the most difficult stage of his political career. And just one year before the race for the presidential candidacy formally begins within the ruling party, with no room for manoeuvre, he makes a desperate call to avoid a rupture.

The confrontation —he says— is inevitable. Will his warnings be heeded? In the first section of the six-year term, Monreal Ávila built his fortress in the legislative precinct. The so-called “containment bloc” is anti-Lopezobradorist and if the senators loyal to Zacatecas pointed the other way, none of the legislative proposals of the Fourth Transformation —call them electoral reform or electrical reform— would come to fruition.

The democratization of Morena is a great banner, but Monreal may not be the best standard bearer. The time of the rupture has not yet arrived… because the senatorial leader has other calculations. And he resists correctly interpreting the signs. The defeat at CDMX six months ago was not his responsibility, but he will have to bear those costs. And more, because Claudia Sheinbaum compiled irrefutable evidence of her links with the protagonists of the UNA.

Six months ago, marginalized from the list of presidential candidates by the main guest of the National Palace, Monreal Ávila elaborated the phrase that will be his political epitaph: “It is with Morena… or by Morena”.

No one spares the Zacatecan politician his courage, but assuming himself as a sure candidate of the ruling party in 2024 sounded too risky, even then.In the following weeks, the presidential rejection of the monrealista nomination was made explicit and also, the refusal to convene a congress to reform the party statutes.

The definition of the presidential candidate will be by surveys, however, recent charades, the cost of which will have to be absorbed by Mario Delgado Measurements are —according to the López Obrador model— the best antidote to external interference in the p internal processes.

Monreal does not offer novel alternatives either. And on the eve of the definition it will barely have half a dozen loyal governors… and not all necessarily from Morena. The promotion of his text on the legislative agenda gave him a pretext to tour the country last year. In the field, he was already able to verify the scope of its territorial structure and the limitations of its alliance with the Muratistas, the CATEM and a sector of the green party that is often listed with the highest bidder.

Side effects

UNDERSTANDINGS. After the Lozoya affair, the Attorney General’s Office could accede to the requests of the legal team representing Juan Collado and grant the release of Carlos Salinas de Gortari’s former lawyer, Roberto Borge, Manlio Fabio Beltrones, Francisco Pérez Fayad and other listed businessmen. for the Fourth Transformation as the Mafia of Power.

SUSPICACIAS. On Channel 11 they are austere and do not want to accumulate impurities. And for this reason, the administration department will have to resort to a direct award to hire cleaning services. Prospective suppliers were invited to submit proposals three days before the beginning of the year, when the tender C11-I3P-017-21 was still in force, which was declared void until one day later. But it was not the first acquisition that had this ending, since the same thing had previously happened with procedure C11-I3P-016-21, called by the Deputy Directorate of Material Resources and Services, Álvaro Vargas González.
