· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
MEXICO CITY – President Claudia Sheinbaum cast doubt on her attendance at the Fan Fest organized in the capital's Zócalo for the World Cup on Tuesday, pending the developments of protests by teachers and other groups in the city center. "We will see how things unfold with the teachers and some other groups, because I need to stay alert to that, obviously. So, there is a team that is constantly monitoring this. But we will see how it develops," the president stated during her morning press conference when asked about her potential presence at the event. The Mexican government has prepared a Fan Fest in the Plaza de la Constitución to follow the World Cup matches, which Sheinbaum had previously stated she would attend to witness the opening game between Mexico and South Africa, after giving her ticket to an Indigenous girl to attend the match at the Estadio Ciudad de México. According to official information, the Zócalo Fan Fest could host up to 60,000 fans on match days, with free access and operating throughout the tournament. Regarding the event's organization, the Mexican leader assured that there is already a defined logistics plan for attendee access. "It is already known how they will enter (the tourists)," she noted, referring to visitors and content creators who have expressed doubts on social media about access to the Zócalo.
