Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador called Castillo’s removal a “coup” fueled by deep-seated racism against the former school teacher from the heavily indigenous Andean highlands.
“It is no longer military intervention,” said López Obrador. “It’s done with control of the media by the oligarchs, undermining legal and legitimately constituted authorities, especially if they want to do something for the benefit of the long-suffering people who do not belong to the elites.”
