U.S. Ambassador Ken Salazar voiced concerns that the popular direct election of Mexican judges could undermine democracy and strain U.S.-Mexico relations, emphasizing the importance of careful governance.
Salazar addressed risks to democracy posed by the proposed judicial reform, stating that Washington's comments aim to ensure constructive dialogue, not to infringe on Mexico's sovereignty.
During a press conference, he confirmed ongoing communications with the Mexican government and described the tense political climate surrounding the judicial reform proposal.
The recent protests and legislative tensions highlight deep divisions about the judges' election process in Mexico, raising questions about the future of the country's democratic framework.
