[00:00:19] your rights also go to school, get informed,
[00:00:22] compare and decide, government of
[00:03:36] 80% of the product comes from
[00:03:36] Well, my family just
[00:04:17] announced that he would sign the Shield of
[00:04:41] Pedro Castillo and that caused the cooling of
[00:15:02] point, your news.
[00:15:23] We open with the intention of recovering the relationship with
[00:15:26] Peru, we are brother
[00:15:30] countries,
[00:15:31] friends.
[00:15:47] Good evening, welcome to reference point, your
[00:15:51] news, this is Azul Alzaga on this side, on this side, Luis Iglesias, Azul, good
[00:15:55] evening, good evening, and we wish you a rainy
[00:15:58] weekend, without a doubt, have a peaceful Friday for those
[00:16:02] who are in these storms in Mexico City, also those who are
[00:16:06] around the republic. Remember @mxreferencia
[00:16:09] #puntoreferencia for all the conversation through
[00:16:12] social networks, we are there. That's right, and we're going to go with the
[00:16:15] information, many bilateral, diplomatic issues,
[00:16:19] also today, the week closes with the news that Mexico
[00:16:22] restores diplomatic relations with Peru. You will remember
[00:16:26] that these were broken in December of last year by decision of the
[00:16:30] former Peruvian president Dina Boluarte in response to Mexico
[00:16:33] granting political asylum to the vice minister of the
[00:16:36] government of Pedro Castillo. and Opetzi Chávez, also politically
[00:16:39] persecuted by the Boluarte government after the coup against
[00:16:42] Castillo's government and his imprisonment. Without
[00:16:45] saying so, with the reestablishment of relations, the government of Keiko
[00:16:49] Fujimori rectifies the irrationality of the
[00:16:52] measure that occurred in December of last year, by
[00:16:56] pointing out, even in a joint communiqué, its respect for international
[00:16:59] law and the principles of the United Nations Charter.
[00:17:03] Precisely, the right to asylum that Peru denied at that moment, is
[00:17:07] one of those principles
[00:17:10] and we, as always, as we have
[00:17:13] done eh, we will continue in the
[00:17:16] defense of President Castillo for the
[00:17:20] reasons we have stated, she said she understood
[00:17:22] that he was in a judicial process
[00:17:26] in Peru, but that it was her wish to reestablish
[00:17:30] relations with Mexico, and for this reason, eh,
[00:17:34] well, obviously, we also never broke relations with Peru.
[00:17:38] relations are reestablished.
[00:17:42] Peru's rectification is reinforced in turn by the
[00:17:45] granting of safe conduct that for months was denied for the transfer
[00:17:49] of Delhi Chávez to the country, which has already
[00:17:52] happened. Safe conduct was
[00:17:55] granted for
[00:17:58] plane was sent for her. It is a
[00:18:01] dialogue that has been undertaken with the new government of Peru for several
[00:18:04] weeks now. This was a request we made
[00:18:08] and
[00:18:11] it
[00:18:13] is an element
[00:18:17] or an action
[00:18:20] that
[00:18:22] is, uh, of good will, let's say, from the
[00:18:28] President Fujimori towards Mexico
[00:18:32] and well, welcome Betsy
[00:18:35] Chávez to Mexico.
[00:18:38] President Claudia Sheinbaum reaffirmed the country's vocation to maintain
[00:18:42] good diplomatic relations with any country in the world and
[00:18:46] celebrated this new circumstance with Peru, also distinguishing this
[00:18:49] case from the only country with which Mexico does not have
[00:18:53] diplomatic relations by its own definition:
[00:18:55] Ecuador. So it is important
[00:18:59] that beyond the political orientation
[00:19:02] of governments, because there are
[00:19:05] political orientations of governments, they come from one party, they come
[00:19:09] from another, it is important that Mexico has
[00:19:13] diplomatic relations with the world, in the
[00:19:16] case of Ecuador we do not have them because they
[00:19:19] invaded the Mexican embassy in Ecuador, it is
[00:19:23] something completely different, there is an affront
[00:19:26] to our sovereignty
[00:19:28] eh,
[00:19:31] but in other cases we always seek the best relations
[00:19:35] of friendship with all the peoples of the world. because furthermore
[00:19:39] that is Mexico's foreign
[00:19:41] policy, this fact is important because Mexico and
[00:19:44] Peru are fundamental members of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum,
[00:19:48] for water economic and commercial agreements and with this
[00:19:52] ends the paralysis of bilateral and regional decisions that
[00:19:55] occurred as a consequence of the rupture between the two
[00:19:58] countries, but how did this process occur that
[00:20:02] ended with this rupture of months, here we
[00:20:04] tell you.
[00:20:11] Mexico and Peru ended a diplomatic crisis that began after the
[00:20:15] dismissal of then President
[00:20:19] the relationship between both nations, this after the
[00:20:22] government of President Keiko Fujimori granted
[00:20:24] safe conduct to former Prime Minister Betsy Chávez who received political
[00:20:28] asylum from Mexico. Betsy
[00:20:31] Chávez, a Peruvian lawyer and politician who was Minister of Labor and
[00:20:34] later President of the Council of Ministers. during the government of Pedro
[00:20:38] Castillo. After the failed dissolution of Congress
[00:20:42] announced by Castillo in December 2022, the former official
[00:20:46] was investigated for her alleged participation in those events.
[00:20:50] and remained in preventive prison while the judicial process against
[00:20:53] her advanced.
[00:20:57] The estrangement between both governments arose after the dismissal of Pedro
[00:21:00] Castillo. In that context, the then president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel
[00:21:04] López Obrador, questioned the way in which the political process in
[00:21:08] Peru developed and expressed his support for the former president, which led to the
[00:21:12] deterioration of the bilateral relationship, and subsequently, to the reduction of
[00:21:16] diplomatic representations.
[00:21:18] We consider. that it
[00:21:22] was a great injustice to
[00:21:24] have dismissed him from his
[00:21:27] position, because he was
[00:21:30] elected by the
[00:21:32] people, furthermore they violated the
[00:21:36] constitution, the
[00:21:39] conservatives
[00:21:44] of Peru, Mexico will continue
[00:21:47] to support. the
[00:21:50] president
[00:21:53] unjustly and illegally dismissed and we will
[00:21:57] continue to demand his
[00:22:01] release,
[00:22:03] he cannot be in jail, it is a great injustice.
[00:22:07] Now both governments agreed to normalize their ties through the
[00:22:11] exchange of ambassadors and the reactivation of official channels of
[00:22:14] communication with the aim of strengthening
[00:22:17] cooperation. Mexico and. Peru are the cradle of
[00:22:21] ancient civilizations. In 2012,
[00:22:23] they promoted the creation of the Pacific Alliance, APEC,
[00:22:27] together with Chile and Colombia. In
[00:22:30] 2023, due to tensions, they handed over the provisional presidency to
[00:22:33] Chile. It should be noted that Mexico will host the meeting of
[00:22:37] leaders of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum,
[00:22:40] APEC,
[00:22:41] 2028. Marisol
[00:22:44] Hernández. Point of
[00:22:46] reference.
[00:22:52] and continuing on the diplomatic front, Mexico was
[00:22:57] la Espriella as the new president of Colombia through a
[00:23:01] representation, this was led by Raquel Serur Meque,
[00:23:04] undersecretary for Latin America and the Caribbean of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
[00:23:08] and who, it should be remembered, was Mexico's ambassador
[00:23:12] in Ecuador when the government of Daniel Noboa invaded the
[00:23:16] Mexican diplomatic headquarters on April 5, 2024.
[00:23:20] In the context of the diplomatic asylum that had been granted to
[00:23:23] Jorge Glass, former Ecuadorian
[00:23:26] vice president. Jorge Glass was arrested at that time,
[00:23:29] Zerur returned to the country and Mexico broke diplomatic
[00:23:33] relations with Ecuador, as we were already hearing from
[00:23:36] President Claudia Sheinbaum herself. It is symbolic,
[00:23:39] therefore, that it is precisely Raquel Serur who attended the protocol of the transfer
[00:23:43] of power in Colombia, the entry of a government with which that country takes a
[00:23:47] 180-degree turn towards the far-right. and the
[00:23:50] exaltation of a discourse of security and firm hand over dialogue and
[00:23:53] peace, Mexico thus fulfills its diplomatic commitment without
[00:23:57] failing to send a political message, that's
[00:23:59] how it was.
[00:24:06] In a turn towards militarism, the right-wing Abelardo de la
[00:24:10] Espriella assumed the presidency of Colombia in an unconventional
[00:24:13] ceremony.
[00:24:14] convencional.
[00:24:26] Instead of doing it as established by the constitution before the
[00:24:29] congress, de la Espriella took office in the Arena
[00:24:33] USC auditorium of the University of Santiago de Cali, where the
[00:24:37] Congress of Colombia was exceptionally moved.
[00:24:41] I send a firm message to the
[00:24:44] Colombian people. The time for the restoration of order,
[00:24:47] authority and
[00:24:51] freedom has begun. At the strategically
[00:24:55] located site in front of a military barracks, where he received the
[00:24:58] support of the armed forces, he sought to reinforce his message of
[00:25:02] authority and security. During his speech, de la Espriella
[00:25:07] the Americas, an initiative promoted by US
[00:25:11] President Donald Trump, with the aim of creating
[00:25:14] a common regional right-wing front to
[00:25:17] supposedly confront crime. initiated: one
[00:25:21] of my first acts of government upon the conclusion of this ceremony will be
[00:25:25] to sign the Shield of the Americas, an
[00:25:28] initiative that will allow us to unite
[00:25:31] capabilities. It is the first time in recent
[00:25:35] Colombian history that the presidential investiture and the
[00:25:38] formal session of the full Congress for this oath
[00:25:42] are held outside Bogotá. The international
[00:25:45] right wing was represented by figures such as the
[00:25:49] president. of Argentina Javier Milei, of Chile, José Antonio
[00:25:52] Kast and of Honduras Daniel Noboa. President Claudia
[00:25:56] Sheinbaum did not attend and in her place, Mexico was represented by
[00:25:59] the Mexican ambassador in Colombia Patricia.
[00:26:03] Among the controversial figures who attended the ceremony
[00:26:06] was FIFA president Gianni
[00:26:14] la Espriella, far from sending a message that he will govern for
[00:26:18] all Colombians, did not invite, for
[00:26:21] example, former President Juan Manuel Santos, who managed
[00:26:24] the peace agreement with the former FARC guerrillas. In
[00:26:28] parallel, in Barranquilla, Senator Iván Cepeda led a
[00:26:31] day. of actions as an expression of rejection and in
[00:26:35] resistance to the new government, as our
[00:26:38] colleague Gustavo Petro has said, we
[00:26:42] will mobilize, but if offered,
[00:26:45] we will be willing to dialogue and
[00:26:49] to a national agreement. The
[00:26:53] la Espriella received the presidency in Bogotá, in a
[00:26:57] day marked by political
[00:26:59] division.
[00:27:10] before leaving the presidency Gustavo Petros said goodbye to the
[00:27:13] Casa de Nariño with a solemn act where he thanked
[00:27:17] the Colombian men and women who accompanied him during his
[00:27:20] government. I hope that they
[00:27:23] remember us,
[00:27:26] always, freedom and
[00:27:28] life. Always, always, and always.
[00:27:32] Long live Free Colombia. With
[00:27:34] information from Sandra Hernández and Anabel Ramírez, point of
[00:27:38] reference.
[00:27:40] Well, there's the difference between coming to power in front of the people, with the people
[00:27:44] doing it in front of a military barracks. But let's see, on more bilateral
[00:27:47] relationship issues, Mexico and Brazil are close to sealing an
[00:27:51] alliance to strengthen Pemex and Petrobras, the two most
[00:27:55] important oil companies in Latin America.
[00:27:59] the objective of exchanging experiences in terms of exploration,
[00:28:03] extraction and processing of crude. The idea is that
[00:28:06] Petróleos Mexicanos will resume the technological model that Petrobras
[00:28:10] applies precisely for the extraction of oil in deep
[00:28:13] waters, mainly referring to the Gulf of
[00:28:16] Mexico. President Claudia Sheinbaum reported that she is analyzing the
[00:28:20] possibility of traveling to the South American country to sign the
[00:28:23] agreement with her Brazilian counterpart Luis Ignacio Lula da
[00:28:26] Silva. We are about to sign the
[00:28:30] agreement between Petrobras. and Pemex, a very
[00:28:34] important agreement. important, and
[00:28:37] um,
[00:28:39] well, I'm going to consider whether I go back
[00:28:43] to Brazil. Well, on the other hand, the partial
[00:28:46] resumption of activity for sending avocados
[00:28:50] to the United States was announced. It had been suspended for a couple of days due to a
[00:28:53] security alert after which US inspectors
[00:28:57] stopped product verification activities for import to the United States. The
[00:29:01] resumption of this process was reported after a working meeting
[00:29:05] at the US embassy after which
[00:29:08] it published that activities would resume tomorrow, Saturday, in
[00:29:12] Tancítaro, Tacámbaro, Uruapan and the area between
[00:29:15] Morelia and Pátzcuaro. The embassy thanked Mexico for its cooperation
[00:29:18] and the actions it has undertaken to strengthen
[00:29:22] security in Michoacán and noted that it will continue to work
[00:29:25] closely with the government of Mexico. It also
[00:29:28] reminds us that Mexican avocado exports to the United States represent
[00:29:31] income for Mexico of between 3 and 3,500 million
[00:29:35] dollars annually.
[00:29:38] the generous orchards of Michoacán and 30,000 producers
[00:29:41] in the state benefit from this
[00:29:44] process. And on more economic topics, there's good
[00:29:48] news: in July, general inflation stood at
[00:29:51] 3.12% annually, this is its best level
[00:29:54] since 2020. In the seventh month, the indicator remains
[00:29:58] within the variability range of the Bank of Mexico of 3%.
[00:30:03] The downward trend continues for consumers. Some of the prices
[00:30:05] in which they could observe this price reduction, according to data
[00:30:09] from Inegi, are tomatoes, poblano peppers, and
[00:30:13] serrano peppers. Let's go with more economic indicators that
[00:30:16] can be very useful to
[00:30:19] us.
[00:30:22] The economic indicators for the first six months of the year show
[00:30:25] Mexico solid. From January to July, 5% more light
[00:30:29] vehicles were sold than in 2025. A total of
[00:30:32] 885,349 units were commercialized, and
[00:30:36] in the monthly comparison, an advance of
[00:30:40] 3.4% was also achieved.
[00:30:42] In July, 130,831
[00:30:46] units were commercialized, that is, 4,290 more than in
[00:30:50] July 2025.
[00:30:52] The Mexican economy resumed growth in the second quarter
[00:30:56] by reporting the largest quarterly advance in 6 years.
