Mexican businessman Ricardo Salinas Pliego has launched strong verbal attacks against Andrés Manuel López Beltrán, the son of former president Andrés Manuel López Obrador, following reports that his United States visa was revoked. Using social media, the prominent tycoon referred to him by a derogatory nickname and publicly questioned his integrity.
Salinas Pliego asserted in his online statements that López Beltrán might be a corrupt criminal, linking him directly to ongoing political and familial controversies surrounding the former administration, though these claims reflect the businessman’s personal opinions rather than judicial rulings. The public feud reignited after international and national reports surfaced regarding the cancellation of López Beltrán’s travel document by United States authorities, triggering widespread reactions across the political spectrum.
This latest clash is part of a broader, long-running confrontation between Salinas Pliego and figures associated with the Morena party, which has intensified over recent months due to disputes over corporate taxes, government policies, and scrutiny of the former president’s family members.
