President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) was in Sonora on the occasion of the lithium nationalization decree. Crossing the territory of Sonora, he launched himself against the opposition to his government, which he described as conservative and accused of wanting Mexico to be a colony.
“What we’re doing is nationalizing lithium so it can’t be mined by foreigners. Oil and lithium belong to the nation, they belong to the Mexican people.”
“There are of course protections, you know how the conservatives are who would like Mexico to become a colony of foreigners, that it not be an independent, free and sovereign country. Nothing more that they will not be able to”, he condemned.
