Elsa Méndez / ACN.- Our Mexico is going through a deep crisis. And I don’t mean just the economic or political one, but something even more serious, a crisis of meaning, truth, and freedom. Every day we painfully see how the current government has been accumulating power at the expense of our institutions and our freedoms. It has struck democracy, silenced voices, suffocated those who generate employment, and despised life and the family, promoting ideologies that do not respond to the reality of people, but to interests that divide and confuse.
The concentration of power, clientelism disguised as social justice, the ideologization in schools, the pressure on companies that provide jobs, and the fracture of the family fabric are clear signs of a regime that has strayed from the common good. Faced with all this, it is understandable that many feel tired, disappointed, or even resigned. But in the midst of that fatigue, a conviction can also be born because Mexico is not lost and we cannot give up.
We cannot stay silent or resign ourselves to the «lesser evil.» Our country needs an alternative, an way out that will not come from the same old ones or from political calculations, but from free, brave, and committed people who stand for the truth.
We need a proposal with vision, character, and principles. A proposal that defends life without apologies, protects the family without hesitation, respects freedom without conditions, and builds an economy that generates real employment, not dependency disguised as aid.
Today, in the midst of this critical moment, a figure has raised her voice that represents something different: Ricardo Salinas Pliego. He is not a traditional politician. He is a businessman, a leader, a citizen who has demonstrated commitment to Mexico through actions, not speeches. He has been clear in denouncing the regime’s mistakes and brave in defending freedom of expression, private property, free enterprise, and the dignity of people.
His leadership does not come from an ideology, but from a practical, firm vision deeply connected to the country’s reality. He is not perfect, because no one is, but he represents a real alternative, with experience, determination, and the ability to say what many prefer to keep silent.
There is an option, an alternative that requires all of us who want something better for our country, and we must build it from now on.
We are in December, and it is no coincidence that this reflection arrives right now. This Christmas is the best moment to boost our commitment to the truth, to freedom, and to the future of our families.
Furthermore, it is important to remember that true hope does not come from people; it comes from God. From that God who is born in the midst of silence, in the midst of the night, in the midst of a wounded world. This Christmas, may Christ be born again in our homes and in our hearts. May His light remind us that we are not alone, that darkness does not have the last word. May the Child God grant us wisdom to choose well, courage to defend what we believe, and hope to build a Mexico with faith and freedom.
