Tens of thousands of demonstrators, clad in pink, marched through cities in Mexico and abroad in a “march for democracy” against the country’s ruling party ahead of the June 2 elections. The protests, called by opposition parties, aimed at advocating for free and fair elections and condemning corruption. The demonstrators voiced concerns about the weakening of democratic institutions and accused the ruling party of endangering democracy. While President López Obrador dismissed the protests, critics argue that the marches are a response to actions undermining democratic processes in Mexico.
