The president favors Cuban doctors and accuses those who seek international support of being traitors

This weekend, Mexico's president, Claudia Sheinbaum, called the opponents who seek international support for internal matters "traitors." However, this statement contrasts with her policy of strengthening ties with authoritarian regimes.
The leader compared the actions of the current opposition to those of the 19th-century conservatives who sought foreign intervention during the time of Maximilian of Habsburg.
Claudia Sheinbaum ha reiterado su postura frente a la oposición.
"It's unbelievable, it's just like the 19th-century conservatives who went to seek Maximilian to govern the country," Sheinbaum remarked.
Nevertheless, Sheinbaum has defended the hiring of Cuban doctors in Mexico, arguing that they fill positions that Mexican doctors do not want. Critics point out that this practice finances the Cuban regime and displaces national professionals.

Affinity with authoritarian regimes
The president has expressed admiration for governments like those of Cuba and Venezuela, calling them "progressive." These statements have caused criticism, as both countries face accusations of human rights violations and political repression.
Additionally, Sheinbaum has maintained a critical stance toward Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa, refusing to restore diplomatic relations following incidents at the Mexican embassy in Quito.
El régimen de la presidente ha mostrado afinidad con la dictadura Cubana.
The actions and statements of President Sheinbaum highlight a contradiction between her nationalist rhetoric and her foreign policy. While she accuses the opposition of betraying the country, she strengthens ties with regimes that restrict essential freedoms.
It is essential that the Mexican government keeps a coherent policy that prioritizes the interests and rights of its citizens, without falling into alliances that compromise democratic principles.
