After the appointment, Omar Fayad protested as Mexico’s ambassador to Norway, although the opposition voted once morest his appointment and demanded that he respond to a payment for having delivered Hidalgo to Morena.
The PRI senator, Claudia Anayaaccused that the former governor of Hidalgo has no merit to be ambassador, and while the former president Enrique Pena Nieto imprisoned half a dozen former PRI leaders, during the current administration “they have received rewards for handing over power to Morena.”
“I hope they are ashamed of what they are doing, it is an offense not only to the Mexican Foreign Service but to the democracy of this country,” said the PRI member.
German Martineza member of the plural group, also expressed his rejection of the appointment of Fayad Meneses and He extended his apologies to Norway “for having made this appointment that is not accompanied by our votes.”
“It is shameless that he represents all Mexicans. The level that is being given to Norway is not deserved by the people of Norway. It comes with the reproach of a part of Mexicans. We Mexicans are much more than the servility that is being rewarded.”
Immediately, the senator Ricardo Monreal defended the appointment of Omar Fayad pointing out that he has a political career and as a legislator he also approved positions “of politicians, but his memory is very short. It makes me very sad that cynicism transforms the most sensible minds.” He also criticized those “converts” who today criticize what they previously endorsed.
Furthermore, he assured that Fayad did not give up the place in Hidalgoa state where a movement was born that led Julio Menchaca to win by more than 30 points.
