A few days before the end of this government, the debt with the southeast and Chiapas is of a high cost and weight. “It is a debt of death.” AMLO will go to his so-called retirement in “La Chingada”, in an environment as Antonio López de Santa Anna wanted in Manga del Clavo: An apparent retirement to continue dictating to power what power should be while thousands, without retirement, rest or retirement, will continue to fight “contributing efforts to rebuild the social fabric so damaged” in the State of Chiapas.
This was considered by the Catholic Multimedia Center, pointing out that for the Church in Chiapas, violence has its origin in the promotion of interests in infrastructure development and extractivism such as mining and the dispossession of natural resources from communities, in addition to the increase in insecurity in which people are used as human shields in confrontations between authorities and criminal cartels.
The Catholic Multimedia Center explained that the massive peace march of the ecclesiastical Province of Chiapas, on September 13, was a demonstration of the clamor that denounces the weariness that the communities of the southeast are experiencing and the need to correct the course in the face of the decomposition caused by the violence that has spread.
Practically alone, due to the vacant seats of Tuxtla Gutiérrez and Tapachula, Rodrigo Aguilar Martínez, bishop of San Cristóbal, and his auxiliary bishop, Luis Manuel López Alfaro, together with the communities and presbyteries, have been the voice of the Church that denounces incessantly to be the voice of those who suffer violence and those who have been forced to remain silent.
Violence increases in Chiapas
In the editorial titled “Chiapas, a debt of death,” the CCM stated that through a statement the representative of the Province indicated that violence is increasing and criminal groups have Chiapas in a virtual state of war where people live in terror.
The Catholic organization maintained that the complaint is also in the illegal tolls that criminals impose to circulate between communities in the face of the indifference of the authorities to whom it launched a severe and harsh remark: “History will judge them for their indolence, for the inability to protect the lives of the innocent! They will be in the memory of the poor people as part of their executioners! There is still time to give answers that lead to eliminating the roots that generate this system of death!”
The CCM commented that centuries have passed and Chiapas continues in this disadvantageous situation, which also does not cease to refer to the promise that the current president of Mexico, a few days before leaving office, made in his campaign and during his mandate: to take the southeast out of poverty and make it a development hub.
His pharaonic, failed and corrupt work, the Mayan Train, is the flagship that would bring prosperity, jobs and development to the communities of Chiapas in what concerns the layout of the unfortunate project. On the eve of the September 16 festivities, López Obrador made a tour of the State on the occasion of the 200 years of the integration of Chiapas into the Mexican Union.
Triumphalist and insensitive, the political class got on the “little train” of development while, on the other hand, thousands marched calling for peace, security, for the end of displacement and the destruction of natural resources.
One more example of Mexico’s polarizations caused by the current political system that insists on dismantling history to create its own history, an idea typical of authoritarian regimes that strive to make invisible what is obvious.
