Amidst slogans such as: Maduro, sure, hit the Yankees hardMexican popular organizations demonstrated yesterday in support of the Venezuelan government.

In front of the Simon Bolivar Monument on Paseo de la Reforma, they demanded respect for the results of the July 28 elections, which favor the Chavista president.

Rosa María Hernández Trejo, from the Mexican Coordinator in Solidarity with Venezuela, said that Given the exemplary result of the elections, we condemn the interventionist machinery that has once again been set in motion to truncate the revolutionary process at its electoral moment..

The Venezuelan ambassador to Mexico, Francisco Arias Cárdenas, defended the fairness of the elections and regretted that the opposition had started an almost insurrectional process to ignore the results, with the support of the US government of Joe Biden.
