Mexico City, October 12 (RHC)-- The president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum sent this Friday a new request to Spain to issue a public apology to the native Mexican peoples for the abuses committed during the conquest consummated in 1521, on the occasion of October 12, which commemorates the Day of Indigenous Resistance.

Claudia Sheinbaum said:  “We are going to show a video about all the public apologies made by presidents or rulers of different places in the world to see if they are encouraged tomorrow to start this process of public apology Spain to the original peoples of Mexico.”

“Before, they used to call it the Day of the Race (Dia de la Raza), which has nothing to do with races because races do not exist in human beings.  We are a single species and there are no races, biologically proven.  Now they call it the Day of Hispanity”, pointed out the Head of State.

Regarding the commemoration, Claudia warned that now they call it Columbus Day.

In the material projected in the morning conference and that will be sent as part of the request, it is stated that “apologies for crimes against humanity is a historical responsibility, a way of seeking reconciliation and overcoming past grievances.  Doing so exalts those who admit the harm done to other peoples or nations. In doing so, the right to truth and dignity of peoples and social groups is recognized.

Previously, the Mexican president referred that the King of Spain was not invited to her inauguration after the silence to the letter sent by former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.  Claudia Sheinbaum stated on said occasion that relations between Spain and her country are not broken, although the king of the Iberian country, Felipe VI, would not participate in the ceremony of the transfer of the Federal Executive Power.

Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO), sent a letter to the King of Spain, on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Mexico's independence and almost two centuries since the foundation of Tenochtitlán, to which the head of State had referred that “so far, this circumstance has not been clarified, nor answered directly to the Government of Mexico.”
