The Mexican government has clarified that 800 million pesos in funds are being directly allocated to schools in Oaxaca, and are not intended for the National Coordination of Education Workers (CNTE) teachers’ union. This clarification came during a recent press conference following an agreement signed by Mario Delgado, a prominent political figure, to end a protest. The controversy arose from concerns that the funds were linked to the CNTE, which had been staging a demonstration. President López Obrador emphasized the money’s direct destination: educational institutions within Oaxaca. The government maintains the funds are specifically earmarked for improving school infrastructure and resources. This move aims to address public concerns and ensure transparency in the distribution of resources. The agreement with Delgado was intended to resolve the protest and facilitate the flow of funds to schools.
