Overview
- The president met with Sinaloa’s interim governor for a formal working session on Thursday to expand cooperation between the federal government and the state.
- Graciela Domínguez Nava is serving as interim governor after Rubén Rocha Moya requested leave on August 22 and she framed the meeting as a shared political project with the president.
- Both leaders stressed coordinated work via the Mesa de Seguridad as the vehicle to pursue peace and public safety in Sinaloa, with Domínguez calling Sheinbaum “a woman of principles.”
- Hours after the presidential meeting, Domínguez reported a separate session with Interior Secretary Rosa Icela Rodríguez to continue aligning federal and state institutions for Sinaloa’s benefit.
- Coverage so far records statements and plans for coordination but no new funding or concrete security operations have been announced, so the president’s upcoming visit will be the next moment to watch for tangible commitments.
