Noroña Dismisses Generación Z March as Lacking Support After Weekend Protest

Organizers say they will proceed with a Nov. 15 mobilization after the senator publicly derided their turnout.

Overview

  • Sen. Gerardo Fernández Noroña said roughly 300 people attended the Saturday demonstration and alleged some participants caused damage in Mexico City’s historic center.
  • He argued the youth-led actions lack popular backing, labeled them part of an opposition strategy, and said freedom of expression is guaranteed in the country.
  • Generación Z México stated it will continue its agenda of marches and activities, including a planned mobilization on Nov. 15.
  • During President Claudia Sheinbaum’s visit to France, a small group of young Mexicans protested and called Mexico a dictatorship, a claim Noroña mocked in a video message.
  • In related security discussions referenced in coverage, Sinaloa’s attorney general reported 144 minors disappeared over 10 months, with 78 found alive, 6 dead, and 60 still missing.
