Spanish to English: Peña Nieto open to dialogue with López Obrador if he recognizes win General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Government / Politics
Source text - Spanish El presidente electo de México, Enrique Peña Nieto, dijo que está dispuesto a dialogar con Andrés Manuel López Obrador, si el ex candidato de la izquierda reconoce “la presidencia ganada por el voto mayoritario de los ciudadanos”.
“Mi interés es tener una apertura, un diálogo, con todas las expresiones políticas. Fue un contendiente, que fue derrotado en la elección, y yo espero construir con su partido, y eventualmente con él, si esa es su disposición, una relación de diálogo”, expresó Peña Nieto en entrevista con Joaquín López Dóriga, que transmitió este martes la cadena Televisa.
En los comicios presidenciales del 1 de julio, Peña Nieto ganó con el 38% de los sufragios, según el cómputo final que aprobó el Tribunal Electoral del Poder Judicial de la Federación (TEPJF), para validar el proceso.
Sin embargo, López Obrador y la coalición Movimiento Progresista afirman que el Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) y Peña Nieto incurrieron en un fraude electoral, al rebasar los topes de gastos de campaña e incurrir en compra del voto.
Al desconocer la elección y el fallo del TEPJF, López Obrador incluso habló el viernes 31 de agosto de que “la desobediencia civil es un honroso deber cuando se aplica contra los ladrones de la esperanza”.
Peña Nieto lamentó ese tipo de expresiones durante la entrevista con Televisa, al insistir en que las elecciones fueron un proceso “ejemplar”, donde 3 millones de ciudadanos participaron como representantes de partidos o autoridades electorales.
El ex gobernador del Estado de México también habló sobre #Yosoy132. Dijo que ese movimiento “despertó aún más la participación de los jóvenes del país”.
“Está claro que el gobierno que habré de encabezar, habrá de gobernar para todos, y por supuesto, en ese compromiso está escuchar todas las expresiones que haya de la sociedad”, expresó el político respecto a las fuerzas que están en contra de su proyecto.
Sobre las prioridades y expectativas de su administración, Peña Nieto dijo que, de entrada, “no cabe el viejo PRI, ni las prácticas del pasado”, y que su principal objetivo será lograr el mayor bienestar para los mexicanos, con un gobierno eficaz.
Este lunes, Peña Nieto presentó al equipo de transición con el que llegará al Poder Ejecutivo, el próximo 1 de diciembre. En él incluyó a 45 personas, incluyendo a antiguos colaboradores, como Luis Videgaray y Miguel Ángel Osorio Chong.
La Presidencia de México confirmó la reunión que sostendrán este miércoles el jefe del Ejecutivo federal, Felipe Calderón, y el presidente electo, Enrique Peña Nieto, quien se prevé acuda con el equipo de colaboradores que lo acompañará en la transición, de acuerdo con la agencia gubernamental Notimex.
El presidente electo también sostuvo una conversación con el mandatario de Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos, en la que expresó su respaldo a la iniciativa para establecer un diálogo con las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de (FARC), y así lograr la paz.
Translation - English Enrique Peña Nieto, president-elect of Mexico, said that he is open to having a dialogue with Andrés Manuel López Obrador, if the ex-candidate of the left is willing to recognize as legitimate “the presidency won by a majority vote of citizens.”
“My goal is to have an open dialogue with all sides of the political spectrum. He was a contender who was defeated in the election and I hope to build a working relationship with his party—and, if he is open to it, with him,” said Peña Nieto in an interview with Joaquin López Dóriga Tuesday on Televisa.
In the July 1 presidential election, Peña Nieto won with 38 percent of the vote, according to the final vote count that was challenged and subsequently confirmed by the Electoral Tribunal of the Federal Judiciary (TEPJF).
Despite that ruling, López Obrador and the Progressive Movement coalition contend that the PRI and Peña Nieto committed electoral fraud by exceeding campaign spending limits and buying votes.
López Obrador has said that he will not recognize the legitimacy of the election results or the decision of the TEPJF to confirm those results. He declared August 31 that “civil disobedience is an honorable duty when carried out against the thieves of hope.”
Peña Nieto said during the Televisa interview that he was disappointed to hear statements about the supposed illegitimacy of the elections, elections that he called an “exemplary” process, where 3 million citizens participated as representatives of political parties or electoral authorities.
Peña Nieto, ex-governor of the State of Mexico, also spoke about #YoSoy132. He said that the movement “further awoke the political participation of young people in this country.”
“It’s clear that the government that I will lead will have to govern for all. And in order to do that we have to listen to all sides of the political spectrum,” said the president-elect regarding the political opposition forces.
On his priorities as president and expectations for his administration, Peña Nieto said that “this won’t be the old PRI, the practices of the past are gone,” and that his principal goal will be to assure the wellbeing of the Mexican people with effective, efficient government.
On Monday, Peña Nieto presented the transition team that will help him into his role as president when he takes over December 1. The group is made up of 45 people, including many past collaborators like Luis Videgaray and Miguel Ángel Osorio Chong.
Peña Nieto will meet Wednesday with current president Felipe Calderón, who is expected to help with the transition to the new administration, according to the government news agency Notimex.
The president-elect also talked with Colombian head of state Juan Manuel Santos, during which he declared his support for a plan to establish a dialogue with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) in order to reach peace with the group.
