Mexico: Campaign Launched to Recall President Enrique Peña Nieto

  • 9 years ago
A campaign was launched in Mexico by leaders and activists of social movements, artists, intellectuals, and members of opposition political parties to promote a referendum to recall President Enrique Peña Nieto. The proposal is to hold a citizens' referendum on June 7, the same day as the upcoming mid-term elections. The campaign coincides with growing public displeasure over high level corruption scandals and the spotlight on the government's human rights record. Clayton Conn reports from Mexico City. teleSUR
