Renewable energy plan and lithium exploitation. President López Obrador said after meeting with US Climate Envoy, John Kerry that his government will not be able to consolidate its plans regarding renewable energy and lithium exploitation in Sonora. Nonetheless, he said his government will work to leave everything on track. 

The president was questioned about his plan by Kerry and assured it sets the bases for the energy future of the country. Furthermore, López Obrador insisted that the meeting with John Kerry went  smoothly and thanked President Joe Biden for helping his administration. 

Public Health system. President López Obrador said his government has the budget to have in Mexico one of the best public health systems in the world and said that by the end of next year his promise would materialize. 

COVID-19. Deputy Minister for Prevention and Health Promotion Hugo López-Gatell reported four months where COVID-19 cases have decreased. Moreover, López-Gatell said that from Oct. 23 to Oct. 29, 265 daily average cases were registered. Bed occupation in hospitals for COVID-19 stands at 3 percent while people in critical condition represent 1 percent.  

Ayotzinapa case. President López Obrador assured that Deputy Minister of Human Rights, Migration and Population Alejandro Encinas did not provide fake information and that the Ayotzinapa investigation is based on solid evidence. 

This is brought to light after the Interdisciplinary Group of Independent Experts (GIEI) published inconsistencies in the alleged messages between members of the criminal group Guerreros Unidos that revealed information about the disappearance of the 43 students. These messages are part of the report presented by the Truth and Access to Justice Commission of the Ayotzinapa Case led by Encinas.

In 2014, during president Enrique Peña Nieto’s administration, 43 students disappeared in Iguala, Guerrero and the government reported they were murdered by the United Warriors Cartel in Cocula. According to the past administration, it was the Iguala police who handed over the students to the criminal group. Nevertheless, since the reopening of the case, new findings incriminating Enrique Peña Nieto’s government have been revealed.
