Many see them as a way to connect
-
with people and reduce the influence
of the traditional press.
-
And although Sheinbaum has said she
will continue them,
-
judging by her character, it's unlikely
she will use these press conferences
-
to openly antagonize her enemies.
-
AMLO is considered a personable,
charismatic leader.
-
Sheinbaum, on the other hand, is not
known for this characteristic
-
Rest assured, we will live up to our
history and
-
to the generous and grand people
of Mexico.
-
She is formal, a perfectionist, and
meticulous in her pursuit of efficiency,
-
and prudent in a methodological sense.
-
And in that, at least in principle, there
will be a change.

The second issue relates to the country’s
most serious problem,
-
according to surveys: insecurity.
-
Although official data shows that
homicides and kidnappings
-
were declining during AMLO's six years in
office, but this was the six-year term
-
with the most homicides in the
country's recent history.
-
This problem is ongoing, and AMLO sought
to remedy it in several ways:
-
he replaced the federal police with a
National Guard,
-
empowered the military with new duties,
and last month reformed the judiciary to,
-
according to him, end impunity.
-
But, ultimately, his goal was to end
violence through
-
social programs for those who, in theory,
are at risk of
-
being recruited into crime.
-
Although Sheinbaum supported
these initiatives and hopes
-
to develop policies addressing the causes
of violence in young people,
-
she also wants to do different things.
-
As mayor, she significantly reduced
indicators of violence through
-
three measures: advanced monitoring
and reporting technology
-
using cameras and data,
-
coordination between entities such
as prosecutors' offices and police to
-
follow up on cases, and improved
crime reporting and investigation
-
processes.
