We are not doing it out of pettiness. We are doing it as a political position, because of how the PRIAN truncated the political project of our presidential candidate Samuel García.”
Eduardo Ramírez, leader of the Morena senators, considered that “it implies having the possibility of building qualified majorities with the Citizen Movement, with the Green, with the Labor Party, with Morena and Encuentro Social.
