Activists request UN formally declare Mexico is currently in an internal armed conflict

Activists and civil organizations requested support from the United Nations Organization (UN) so that the situation of violent internal conflict in Mexico is recognized and immediate measures are taken.

Activists such as Kenya Cuevas, founder of the House of Tiresias Dolls; Cecilia Patricia Flores, from Searching Mothers of Sonora; Renata Villarreal from Marea Verde, and Bryan LeBaron, a relative of the Mormons massacred in November 2019 in northwestern Mexico.

"If we don't call things by their name, if we don't have the correct diagnosis, the strategy will never be successful," activist LeBaron said . . .
