Catholic Church calls on government to rethink security strategy

The Conference of the Mexican Episcopate on Thursday called on the government of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to rethink the security strategy, so that protection in the country is guaranteed. This after a few days ago two Jesuit priests were killed in the town of Cerocahui, Chihuahua.It was through a statement that the Catholic Church spoke with concern about the growing violence suffered by the country, which has added the loss of thousands of innocent lives. Which in turn has affected the development of daily life hitting the productive activities of different sectors. They also lamented the death of the two Jesuit priests in Cerocahui, Chihuahua, a fact they mentioned, “is just another example of the lack of values and sensitivity that has been reached. The Episcopate recalled that according to official figures, “you tell us about almost 122, a thousand murders at the hands of criminals for almost three and a half years.” We want to express our closeness and solidarity with all the victims, beyond our political or social differences, recognizing that we are all brothers. We want to join the thousands of voices of citizens of good will who can put a stop to this situation. Enough! We cannot be indifferent or oblivious to what is affecting us all,” the Episcopate mentions in the letter. Therefore, they extended a call to the Federal Government to the different levels of government so that in line with what was taken up in the Senate of the Republic, the security strategies that are failing are reviewed.
