Responding to State Department criticism of Mexico's popular electoral reform, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, known as, AMLO denounced U.S. "meddling," support for coups, and the Monroe Doctrine.

He said, "There is more democracy today in Mexico than in the United States... because here the people govern, and there the oligarchy govern."

AMLO lamented that politicians in Washington "still will not abandon the two-century-old policy, the Monroe Doctrine, of thinking of themselves as the world's government," calling it a "centuries-old habit of the US government and US elites."

As an example, López Obrador pointed to Peru, where he said "the US ambassador is the advisor of the coup-mongers, who trampled on the liberties and democracy in that country, unjustly overthrowing the President [Pedro Castillo] and imprisoning him."

AMLO also denounced US corporate media outlets for spreading propaganda against his government, supporting Mexico's right-wing opposition, and "protecting the mafias of economic power in the world."
