**María Luisa Alcalde Addresses Internal Disputes in Morena**
In recent developments within the National Regeneration Movement (Morena), party president María Luisa Alcalde has expressed a sense of calm regarding internal disagreements. Amidst tensions involving former Baja California Governor Jaime Bonilla Valdez and former Tijuana Mayor Montserrat Caballero Ramírez, Alcalde emphasized that Morena embraces inclusivity. “Everyone is welcome in this stage; nobody is extraneous to Morena, as the party doesn’t belong to any one individual,” she stated.
The city of Tijuana recently hosted an informational event to kick off Morena’s national campaign, aiming to register 20 million members. For Baja California, the goal is to enlist 300,000 supporters to bolster Morena’s influence in upcoming local and national elections. Alcalde reiterated the party’s openness to new members from varied political backgrounds, including former affiliates of the National Action Party (PAN) and Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), provided they align with Morena’s principles and vision.
“We’ve grown through openness,” Alcalde said, clarifying that prospective members must uphold Morena’s ethos, which focuses on combating corruption and fostering justice. Her announcement was consistent with the party’s strategy of expanding its base by welcoming disenchanted members from other parties.
Andrés Manuel López Beltrán, son of the former Mexican president, maintained a low profile during his appearances in Tijuana, opting not to comment publicly during events.
