President López Obrador criticized U.S. Ambassador Ken Salazar’s remarks, arguing that direct elections for judges would enhance democracy rather than undermine it. He emphasized Mexico's sovereignty and the importance of self-determination in reforming its judicial system.
Ambassador Salazar highlighted concerns that restructuring the judicial system by allowing voters to select judges could lead to increased influence from drug cartels, thereby posing a risk to the stability and integrity of Mexico's democracy.
