Overview

• At her morning briefing, President Claudia Sheinbaum said a senator seeking foreign intervention is “not minor” and framed unauthorized operations by foreign agents as a sovereignty issue.
• Morena’s national leader, Luisa María Alcalde, condemned Téllez on social media, alleging she is capable of betraying the country and vowing that the public will judge her.
• Téllez countered that she requested “help,” not intervention, argued that treason requires intent to surrender sovereignty, and called the charges politically manipulative.
• PT deputy Lilia Aguilar Gil asked the Senate Ethics Commission to investigate Téllez for alleged “treason to the homeland.”
• Journalist Eduardo Ruiz-Healy labeled the remarks treason by his definition on Radio Fórmula while noting the legal standard for the crime is narrower.
