Tulum
In Quintana Roo, Mexico, over 500 landowners protest the Mayan Train project. They gave up land with promises of compensation and development which haven't materialized. Now facing further land grabs, they block a highway, demanding hospitals, schools, and the return of their land.
Politics
AMLO's Mayan Train promises tourism and economic growth, but faces backlash. Critics cite environmental damage, while AMLO calls them corrupt “pseudo-environmentalists.” The project sparks debate over progress vs. preservation, with AMLO also touching on Assange's defense and Canada's visa policy.
