@@ArawnOfAnnwn In order to clean a state, you need violate Human rights, like Bukele do in Salvador, but human rights is the first stone to obliterate security, even New York fell in that Human rights trap
The reason for the “increase” of crime is because before many crimes weren’t reported, judges were corrupt and many of that data was omitted intentionally.
That’s what I’m saying. The mainstream corporate media forgets the literal bodies hanging off bridges in Veracruz when Javier Duerta gave the state away to the zeta cartels, literally. The chief of security was a Zeta member. Or when they arrested Tony Tormenta and Matamoros was a literally war zone (marine helicopter had to fire machine guns in the downtown area “call of duty” style) and then there’s Genaro Garcia Luna. He’s the architect behind the war in the cartels and yet was in the Sinaloa cartel payroll. But back then Mexico was under neoliberal government who Wall Street seems to love. That’s the real reason. AMLO is a nationalist and big business can’t stand that.
Honestly, I’d prefer the military to build infrastructure than fight wars. Hopefully they can create enough jobs and reasons for the cartel members to put down their guns and build.
The Best response as a mexican I can tell, the only problem in México Is the lack of responsabilty from gobernment to the population, we are rich in many areas but we don't bright

Just from the second I heard the background music, I knew this was not real journalism. This is a complete biased video pretending to misinform international opinion about an issue that has been growing for more than 30 years due to government negligence, and now they pretend that in 6 years everything will magically change. Why didn't you talk about the historic nexus of the PRI with the cartel? Why didn't you discuss the role of the USA in demanding more and more drugs every year, thus contributing to the insecurity issue? The insecurity and violence issue is more complex than this mediocre analysis. But let's be honest, what can we expect from partial journalism like Bloomberg?
Armando, This is true what you said, it may not be a a legitime journalism but what you call Professional Journalism, they are not any better. They all bias and all depends what the subject is about and who pays better.
Cope more. There is always demand for drugs. Your weakness is your own fault. Leftists always love to shift blame to the US instead of looking at their own, direct accountability.
Your point is barely half of the video. There is no benefit in putting civilian infrastructure projects into the hands of the army. They should be run by civilian government institutions. Egypt put infrastructure and entire industries into military control and it only gave to money the generals.
@@Oreo-xc9sd There I'm afraid I'll have to disagree with you, there are plenty of independent journalists on UA-cam, who don't play some scary sounding background music on their videos and have a more profound analysis, with sources and interviews to other public figures.
These people only criticize and never provide solutions to the problems. they never cared for El Salvador when the people were massacred on a daily basis but when Bukele decided to put these criminals behind bars these people only criticized, calling him a dictator. Now supposedly they care for Salvadorans human rights. The people want Bukele not you b.s
Bukele is a dictator lol people who really want change in their country follow rules...niot break them. Why hasnt bukele done the same thing AMLO did with Claudia?
This is such propaganda I’m weak, presidents have to make the toughest decisions, call it what it is but this transition to militarize had to be made to protect the infrastructure development of the country besides de rural and urban, from cooperation interest.

What this report fails to point out is that AMLO has an 84% approval rating, the standard of living in Mexico has increased by over 268%, the percentage of people in poverty has decreased from 68% to less than 20%, the number of people in the middle class has increased from less than 13% to nearly 50%, almost 60% of those migrants coming to the United States now remain in Mexico because they find jobs in Mexico, even among the Ukrainian who entered the united states, many have chosen to return to Mexico after being disappointed with the quality of life in the United States. More Americans are migrating to Mexico than Mexicans are coming to the United States. In January of 2024, many Americans were deported back to the United States and 99.98% of them begged to go back to Mexico agreeing to pay their fair share of taxes and agreeing to comply with the Mexican laws and pay restitution for having failed to pay fines and update their Mexican residency papers. So Mexico isn't perfect but it seems like it's a place that even Americans are migrating to. Biden only has a less than 30% approval rating while Trump only has a 32% approval rating while AMLO has an 84 % approval rating.
Not sure exactly, though I assume there was a pretty coherent argument that was made at the time that such construction was a matter of national defense. Here the only thing I heard was military is pillar of Mexico or something.
We're not used to that. The military in Mexico (whichever branch) built only their own infrastructure (housing, hospitals, barracks, etc) so to suddenly see them in charge of all the government mayor construction proyects is unusual. In addition this administration pushed for the creation of a National Guard (mix of an old police branch with some navy and army personel) and on top of that now they're also in charge of all customs and airports
The same people who control the Mexican army control the United States army and both are used to enslave the people to serve their Super Tyranny. Facts!
It was worse. I remember when Calderon and Peña Nieto were in office, we would go to Mexico for vacation and at the airport you had the Marines walking around inside the airport on patrol. Today you have the National Guard and they're not visibly armed.
It does not work. The army does not investigate anything. Only in 2023 they caught 3,200 people. when the Federal Police caught between 23,000 and 24,000 in 2018. The army does not investigate homicides, kidnappings. They are only from ornament.
@@unknownsender_ They are armed, byt the GN soldiers working customs usually arent armed or only have a pistol on them unlike the Marina whose people are always in full kit
@@Subawoooo so what’s the point of a national guard without weapons? They’re basically security at that point. They’re walking around all over Mexico without weapons that’s what’s crazy about it.
I love the National Guard and as a Mexican we trust in our government, we just have a huge cancer of corruption that little by little needs to be dealt with. When the Nat Guard is near my house, they are very professional and friendly. I wish I could say the same of the now no longer Federal Police.
Bloomberg hasn’t realized this is happening worldwide not just in Mexico 🤷🏻♀️ AMLO is the BEST President Mexico has ever had. Viva AMLO and Mexico 🇲🇽 🥳
Mexico is developing infraestructura by Mexican profesionales both military and civilians. Right now they have built and still building a great number of projects. So no thank you.Mexico does it need foreign help
@@minag503 yes, in projects that cost twofold or threefold what they oroginally were, plagued by corruption, bad quality and bad planning. Not only are the projects an environmental disaster, but the use of the military is to hide all information under "national security", using it for corruption.
I doubt the National Guard even did more weapons seizures than the Federal Police all they do is make tiktoks and take pictures while the PF while being corrupt actually did a lot more against the war on drugs
This document doesn't point out that both Trump and Biden pressured Mexico into increasing its military force in order to strengthen its Southern border and that both Trump and Biden then freaked out when Mexico increased its military force so the Mexican president AMLO again started to decrease the number of Mexican military that causes an increase in migrants coming to the border which then had both Trump and then later Biden demand that Mexico again increased its military presence in the southern border, so the USA has this weird relationship with Mexico where we want Mexico to have a strong Southern border but we get paranoid the moment that they have too much military.
The politian thats in this video was in human rights in mexico when the 43 students where killed and he didnt do nothing in his power to help resolve or investigate because one of his party was involved that in the killings
Well, the projects run by the mexican government have costed 3 times more than they said they would, are full of corruption, and have the worst quality you could imagine. The ferinery has not refined even a gallon, and wont do it this year, when the president already said it was ready a long time ago. The airport has already have failures and nobody uses it. The Tren Maya was a complete ecocide, all the biodiversity lost, when the president said not even one tree would be cut. The main reason they use the military is to mark it as "national security" so news reporters cannot acces the contracts or money movements, making ti possible to have a ton of corruption under the water.
Its better for the army for them to build and protect and not killing and destroying like the US does and supports, No human rights have been broken in Mexico by this goverment and the US?
Why? Why not? I should ask since to build something via private enterprise, they used about 3 or more levels of subcontractors overcharging the cost in each level, and in most cases, they never finished nothing declaring bankruptcy or using a ponzi scheme or fake companies
The thing is that in practice, at least in mexico, the military has taken 3 or more times the cost they initially planned, all plagued with corruption. And guess what, because they are the military they hide all the information for "national security" so that we dont know who is being contracted or what is being paid.
Like AMLO said. Mexico is a Capitalist country. It sucks for Americans that consumerism is taking over. Mexico doesn’t have a opioid problem. The US does. You can’t blame Mexico for delivering what capitalism is asking for.
And the majority love this because the projects are getting done 😂 before when the “right” was in charge the project would take forever and overpriced and in theses 6 years we see it with the new airport,trains,new modern public transportation,the elderly pension for people over 65yo,new scholarships from preschool to college,new roads and bridges,new refinery and a huge one that’s nationalizing all the natural resources 🇲🇽🇲🇽
Hahahah yeah, you live in the same imaginary mexico that AMLO talks about in his propaganda daily. Lets go ask people in Guerrero, Zacatecas, Chiapas and many other states how safe they feel. We can no longer ask the almost 40 candidates that were assassinated during these elections.
I don’t understand why people complain about the national guard as their police force… a lot of countries in Europe and Latin America use them.. that’s the best option for the Mexican country 🇲🇽

What about Zaldivar? Your president literally confessed telling him what to do, which is not only unconstitutional but also antidemocratic. Morena is a disgrace to mexicans.
AMLO has place many infrastructure projects in the hands of the military because in the past 36 years during the neoliberalism era, corruption propagated like fire through all branches of government replacing construction companies with contractors that got government projects by influentism. If a project would cost 1 billion pesos, they would quote it for 2 and would keep on delaying. The project would end up costing 7-8 billion pesos and quality would be lacking. An example were hospitals built by the private sector for the government. A fully equipped hospital cost the military about 6billion pesos. Private sector would sign a contract with the government to build it and have the government pay the contractor 1 billion pesos each year for maintenance for 20 years. At the end of those 20 years the contract would be over and the hospital would remain property of the contractor, not the government. AMLO uses the arm forces to reduce the amount of tax payer money that goes into corruption so he can use it to help the poor. By the way Bloomberg, where's your Vulcan Materials investigation? 🤔🤔🤔

As a US citizen - we should do the same because crime is out of control in our country and the police no longer does anything. In fact, local police is more concerned with being friends with the criminals and often times prosecutors go after the victims for defending themselves. Going to say we mind our own business on this one and focus on our own domestic problems.
As a U.S. citizen who recently immigrated to Mexico, believe us when we say allowing an unchecked, heavily funded and massive military- industrial complex, will be the downfall of a country.
@johnmedrano2270 it doesn't matter where i live. What matters is that we, the regular people from 🇺🇸 acknowledge that our government is corrupt and evil, and there's too much proof to deny it. Read the Monroe Doctrine
And this lady asked AMLO a question in the Mañanera and got destroyed go check it out 😂😂 a lot of real independent media outlets in Mexico clowned her 😂
Military should have honor and loyalty to the country and they should always be one step below civilian government. Military should not use it's power against it's citizens, in my country military refused to fight communist rebels because it's hard to distinguish from civilians and they are still citizens, so the government uses paramilitary forces under it to eliminate them.
This military is NOT using its power against it s citizens. Using its power against USs covert groups and USsagents who always try to destabalize MExco. They are not citizens. They are either traitors or USAa trained agents.
Dont be so glad, all of it has put us in an excruciating debt, has been plagued with corruption, and most of it doesnt work or has a really bad quality that has costed human lives.

@@arminius6506 This exact phrase I have also heard about Pakistan. But sad to see the nature of things in the Post Arab spring world especially Egypt. Giving power to the army as an institution when all others seem corrupt seems an innate instinct in many countries . Hopefully Mexico and Egypt both rally on .
Egypt did a similar thing but to build a useless capital in the desert. This is to build a train system to compete with the Panama Canal at moving goods from Pacific to Atlantic and in and out of North America
At the beginning of AMLO's term, the right was inciting the military to stage a coup against him. To avoid what happened in other countries like Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia, or Peru, where the extreme right staged coups and even imprisoned their presidents, AMLO allied with the military. This alliance aims to prevent a future coup against the progressive model he proposes. If the right were to return to power and attempt privatization, they could be the ones facing a coup. It is a masterful move. However, the military in Mexico do not have significant investments in arms or anything of the sort. The Mexican and American right, with their corrupt interests, use the media to discredit AMLO's social democratic movement at all costs. Mexico is a miracle, as with just a third of what AMLO has achieved in Mexico, Salvador Allende in Chile was overthrown in the 1970s. The United States and the right have no choice but to allow Mexico to develop, especially now with nearshoring, as Mexico is the main trading partner of the United States. All this information on the video is very biased.
Amen.. Can't ignore that AMLO bought 2 Texas refineries n now controls the oil flow in this side of the world..lol Mexico sells oil n gas to USA now, used to be the other way around..
Mxico won’t develop to its full potential when Criollos still disproportionately control majority of the wealth and political pwer, which is causing the major inequality.

Yes and its largely made by folks from the political party that ran "tough on cartels drug war" that turned out to only impact the cartels that were not the Sinaloa Cartel because the Sinaloa Cartel had the people managing the drug war in their pocket. It was effectively a drug war only against the enemies of the Sinaloa Cartel under PAN/PRI. You can google freely for Luis Cardenas Palomino /Garcia Luna if you want to confirm the assesment.

Yes they have. built their military but corruption within that military has also increased,in other words Mexico has well trained the drug cartels with military tactics ,weapons and secrets .
If you are so concern about the environment because of Maya Train where is your investigation with regards to Vulcan materials mining operations near Tulum.
The reason they are militarizing is for the exact same reason why Russia did so before the invasion. The same reason why Venezuela is currently building up its military. The same reason why Japan is doing it. Poland, Hungary, Romania, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Syria, Azerbaijan, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Philippines, etc. ...

This is a complete biased video pretending to misinform international opinion about an issue that has been growing for more than 30 years due to government negligence, and now they pretend that in 6 years everything will magically change. Why didn't you talk about the historic nexus of the PRI with the cartel? Why didn't you discuss the role of the USA in demanding more and more drugs every year, thus contributing to the insecurity issue? The insecurity and violence issue is more complex than this mediocre analysis. But let's be honest, what can we expect from partial journalism like Bloomberg?
Armando,
This is true what you said, it may not be a a legitime journalism but what you call Professional Journalism, they are not any better. They all bias and all depends what the subject is about and who pays better.
Cope more. There is always demand for drugs. Your weakness is your own fault. Leftists always love to shift blame to the US instead of looking at their own, direct accountability.
Armando here sounds like the real reporter .

What this report fails to point out is that AMLO has an 84% approval rating, the standard of living in Mexico has increased by over 268%, the percentage of people in poverty has decreased from 68% to less than 20%, the number of people in the middle class has increased from less than 13% to nearly 50%, almost 60% of those migrants coming to the United States now remain in Mexico because they find jobs in Mexico, even among the Ukrainian who entered the united states, many have chosen to return to Mexico after being disappointed with the quality of life in the United States. More Americans are migrating to Mexico than Mexicans are coming to the United States. In January of 2024, many Americans were deported back to the United States and 99.98% of them begged to go back to Mexico agreeing to pay their fair share of taxes and agreeing to comply with the Mexican laws and pay restitution for having failed to pay fines and update their Mexican residency papers. So Mexico isn't perfect but it seems like it's a place that even Americans are migrating to. Biden only has a less than 30% approval rating while Trump only has a 32% approval rating while AMLO has an 84 % approval rating.

Not sure exactly, though I assume there was a pretty coherent argument that was made at the time that such construction was a matter of national defense. Here the only thing I heard was military is pillar of Mexico or something.
Simple, this president is less likely to bed to the US's wishes.
We're not used to that. The military in Mexico (whichever branch) built only their own infrastructure (housing, hospitals, barracks, etc) so to suddenly see them in charge of all the government mayor construction proyects is unusual. In addition this administration pushed for the creation of a National Guard (mix of an old police branch with some navy and army personel) and on top of that now they're also in charge of all customs and airports
ah, propaganda for the paymasters, how delightful

And all controlled by the Cartels.

It was worse. I remember when Calderon and Peña Nieto were in office, we would go to Mexico for vacation and at the airport you had the Marines walking around inside the airport on patrol. Today you have the National Guard and they're not visibly armed.
It does not work. The army does not investigate anything. Only in 2023 they caught 3,200 people. when the Federal Police caught between 23,000 and 24,000 in 2018.

This is a bias propaganda to discredit AMLO, but in fact he has done more for Mexico than any other president in it’s history.
This document doesn't point out that both Trump and Biden pressured Mexico into increasing its military force in order to strengthen its Southern border and that both Trump and Biden then freaked out when Mexico increased its military force so the Mexican president AMLO again started to decrease the number of Mexican military that causes an increase in migrants coming to the border which then had both Trump and then later Biden demand that Mexico again increased its military presence in the southern border, so the USA has this weird relationship with Mexico where we want Mexico to have a strong Southern border but we get paranoid the moment that they have too much military.

The ferinery has not refined even a gallon, and wont do it this year, when the president already said it was ready a long time ago. The airport has already have failures and nobody uses it. The Tren Maya was a complete ecocide, all the biodiversity lost, when the president said not even one tree would be cut. The main reason they use the military is to mark it as "national security" so news reporters cannot acces the contracts or money movements, making ti possible to have a ton of corruption under the water.
Last month i was in Vienna airport Schwechat, i saw police men who looks like 2050 army member patroling with guns. Is Austria military state?
No because thats for international airport security for counter-terrorism. The police you find in the streets are not militarized.

Why? Why not? I should ask since to build something via private enterprise, they used about 3 or more levels of subcontractors overcharging the cost in each level, and in most cases, they never finished nothing declaring bankruptcy or using a ponzi scheme or fake companies
The thing is that in practice, at least in mexico, the military has taken 3 or more times the cost they initially planned, all plagued with corruption. And guess what, because they are the military they hide all the information for "national security" so that we dont know who is being contracted or what is being paid.

What about Zaldivar? Your president literally confessed telling him what to do, which is not only unconstitutional but also antidemocratic. Morena is a disgrace to mexicans.
AMLO has place many infrastructure projects in the hands of the military because in the past 36 years during the neoliberalism era, corruption propagated like fire through all branches of government replacing construction companies with contractors that got government projects by influentism. If a project would cost 1 billion pesos, they would quote it for 2 and would keep on delaying. The project would end up costing 7-8 billion pesos and quality would be lacking. An example were hospitals built by the private sector for the government. A fully equipped hospital cost the military about 6billion pesos. Private sector would sign a contract with the government to build it and have the government pay the contractor 1 billion pesos each year for maintenance for 20 years. At the end of those 20 years the contract would be over and the hospital would remain property of the contractor, not the government. AMLO uses the arm forces to reduce the amount of tax payer money that goes into corruption so he can use it to help the poor. By the way Bloomberg, where's your Vulcan Materials investigation? 🤔🤔🤔

As a US citizen - we should do the same because crime is out of control in our country and the police no longer does anything.

At the beginning of AMLO's term, the right was inciting the military to stage a coup against him. To avoid what happened in other countries like Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia, or Peru, where the extreme right staged coups and even imprisoned their presidents, AMLO allied with the military. This alliance aims to prevent a future coup against the progressive model he proposes.
If the right were to return to power and attempt privatization, they could be the ones facing a coup. It is a masterful move. However, the military in Mexico do not have significant investments in arms or anything of the sort. The Mexican and American right, with their corrupt interests, use the media to discredit AMLO's social democratic movement at all costs. Mexico is a miracle, as with just a third of what AMLO has achieved in Mexico, Salvador Allende in Chile was overthrown in the 1970s.
The United States and the right have no choice but to allow Mexico to develop, especially now with nearshoring, as Mexico is the main trading partner of the United States. All this information on the video is very biased.
