The United States strikes at the heart of Morena with the withdrawal of the visa from Andy López Beltrán

The US has revoked the visa of Andy López Beltrán, a key figure in Mexican politics and son of former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. This move is seen as a significant blow to the ruling Morena party, led by President Claudia Sheinbaum. The US decision has sparked speculation and opposition accusations of government corruption, while Morena has accused the US of "political interference".

The visa cancellation does not imply any charges, but has been met with a strong response from López Beltrán, who wrote a letter to President Trump.
