The Troubling Silence Surrounding Ayotzinapa and Mexico's Army under López Obrador

Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has failed to deliver on his promise to uncover the truth behind the 2014 disappearance of 43 student teachers in Iguala, Guerrero. Instead, he has allowed the investigation to stall, seemingly to protect his allies in the military. This inaction highlights López Obrador's unwillingness to address the deep-rooted issues of cartel violence, government corruption, and impunity that have plagued Mexico for decades. The international community, including the Organization of American States, should pressure the president to fulfill his commitment to justice and hold the military accountable for their role in the disappearances.
