Saúl Monreal rejects jumping to the Green Party and clings to 4T candidacy: 'I will exhaust the process in Morena'

Senator Saúl Monreal affirms his commitment to the Morena party and intends to fully explore internal options for the Zacatecas candidacy in 2027 before considering any alternatives.

Senator Saúl Monreal has declared his intention to remain in the Morena party and not seek a candidacy for Zacatecas in 2027 through any other political force such as the Green Party. He emphasized his commitment to exhaust all internal processes within Morena before making any decisions regarding his political future. In an interview, Monreal expressed his hope to be considered for the candidacy, although he acknowledged that he would evaluate the situation responsibly if he is not selected.

During the discussion, Monreal clarified that there have been no discussions or outreach from the Green Party or any other political organization concerning his potential candidacy. He reiterated that seeking a position is not the ultimate goal of his political life; rather, he is aware of the political context and the timing for his decision-making. Monreal's statement comes in light of the competitive nature of political endorsements in Mexico’s upcoming elections, particularly within the Morena party where internal dynamics are key to candidacy selections.

As a member of the 4T (Fourth Transformation) movement, Monreal's commitment to staying within Morena reflects broader narratives about party loyalty and strategic positioning within Mexican politics. His brother Ricardo Monreal has also played a significant role in national politics, and Saúl's actions may influence perceptions of the Monreal family's political footprint in Zacatecas and beyond, as the elections approach.
