MEXICO: Government under pressure over rains response
Heavy rainfall has caused severe flooding and landslides in five states in central and eastern Mexico, leading to considerable damage and loss of life. President Claudia Sheinbaum has visited the states in question – Veracruz, Puebla, Hidalgo, San Luis Potosí, and Querétaro – and has stated her government will spare no expense in attending to those affected and repairing damaged infrastructure. However, as the death toll from the rainfall rises and dozens remain missing, discontent is growing with the government’s response to the disaster, which has raised questions more widely about Morena’s ability to respond to natural disasters and extreme weather phenomena.
