MONTERREY (EFE).— Andrés Manuel López Beltrán, son of the former president of the same name, made his first public appearance yesterday as secretary of Morena at an informational assembly in Nuevo León.
At the meeting, the national president of the party, Luisa María Alcalde, highlighted that Mexico is experiencing a historic moment thanks to the first president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum.
“It closes this historical stage (of the previous government), but it also begins a new historical stage. For our fortune, we have to live and we have to be part of this new stage that is the second floor of the Fourth Transformation (as López Obrador called his movement), led by the first president of Mexico,” said Luisa María.
The event was held at the facilities of the International Business Center (Cintermex) in Monterrey, where there was high expectation about López Beltrán’s speech; However, “Andy” did not make statements to the press or speak at the event.
López Beltrán, López Obrador’s second son, was elected to the third most important position in the party as he was in charge of mobilizing the organization’s structures.
Luisa María, also former Secretary of Labor and the Interior of the last administration, mentioned that having a woman govern the country is part of the transformation.
“Proud”
“That’s why we feel so proud. Last June 2, the people of Mexico made a decision freely, but above all devastating and that decision was to continue the transformation,” he explained.
He added that citizens opted for “a woman, a social fighter and a founder of Morena.”

Interview with Dr. Lucia Gonzalez, Urban Development Expert in Monterrey
Editor: Good morning, Dr. Gonzalez! Thank you for joining us today to discuss the recent developments in Monterrey.
Dr. Gonzalez: Good morning! Thank you for having me.
Editor: Monterrey is known for its rapid urban growth. Can you tell us about some of the key challenges the city is currently facing?
Dr. Gonzalez: Certainly. Monterrey has seen a significant influx of population, which has led to straining infrastructure. We are experiencing challenges like traffic congestion, pollution, and the need for sustainable housing. Additionally, water scarcity is a growing concern due to our environmental conditions.
Editor: That sounds quite pressing. What initiatives are being implemented to address these issues?
Dr. Gonzalez: The local government, along with several NGOs, is working on various fronts. There are projects aimed at improving public transportation, enhancing green spaces, and implementing better waste management systems. Additionally, efforts are being made to promote sustainable building practices to reduce our ecological footprint.
Editor: Those sound like important steps forward. How can residents get involved in these initiatives?
Dr. Gonzalez: Community engagement is vital. Residents can participate in local meetings, volunteer for clean-up projects, and advocate for policies that prioritize sustainable development. It’s also important for citizens to stay informed and support local initiatives that align with environmental sustainability.
Editor: Very insightful! Lastly, what is your vision for Monterrey’s future in terms of urban planning?
Dr. Gonzalez: I envision Monterrey as a model for sustainable urban living in Mexico. By focusing on resilient infrastructure, prioritizing public health, and preserving our natural resources, we can create a vibrant city that maintains its economic growth while improving the quality of life for all residents.
Editor: Thank you so much, Dr. Gonzalez. Your insights are invaluable for understanding the direction Monterrey is heading.
Dr. Gonzalez: Thank you for having me! It’s been a pleasure.
Reen spaces, and promoting sustainable building practices. There’s also a renewed focus on water management systems to ensure better distribution and conservation of our water resources. These initiatives are crucial for maintaining the quality of life in Monterrey.
Editor: It’s encouraging to hear that steps are being taken. Now, regarding the recent political event featuring Andrés Manuel López Beltrán. How significant do you believe it is for the direction of local governance, particularly with Claudia Sheinbaum’s election?
Dr. Gonzalez: The appointment of a woman leading the country is indeed historic and signifies a transformative moment in Mexican politics. Claudia Sheinbaum’s leadership could bring a different perspective to governance that may prioritize social issues and sustainable development, especially in urban planning and health policies, which are sorely needed in areas like Monterrey.
Editor: Interesting perspective! There was high expectation surrounding López Beltrán’s appearance, yet he did not speak at the event. What do you think this indicates about his role and the current state of Morena?
Dr. Gonzalez: It’s quite telling. It suggests that López Beltrán may still be in a learning phase or perhaps he’s being positioned as a behind-the-scenes strategist rather than a public figure. His silence could create an air of intrigue about his future actions within Morena. However, it’s crucial for him to eventually articulate a clear vision if he seeks to engage effectively with the public and the party base.
Editor: Great points! Lastly, how can citizens participate in these transformations at the local level?
Dr. Gonzalez: Citizens can engage through initiatives such as public forums and community meetings to voice their concerns and ideas. They can also support local projects by volunteering or advocating for better urban policies. Active participation in civic life is essential for driving the changes we want to see in Monterrey.
Editor: Thank you, Dr. Gonzalez, for your insights on these pressing issues and the dynamic political landscape in Monterrey.
Dr. Gonzalez: Thank you for having me! It’s my pleasure to share these important conversations with the public.
