Missing persons/forced disappearances: truth, data, and state action
President Claudia Sheinbaum presented a report on the search for missing persons. Since 2018, the registry totals 394,645 cases (dating back to 1952). Of these, 262,111 persons have been located, 96% with no link to a crime, challenging alarmist narratives. Currently, there are more than 132,000 people still missing, of whom 130,178 correspond to the period after 2006, an era marked by a failed security strategy.
The phenomenon is tied to two stages: the “Dirty War” (1950s–90s) and the violence since 2006. In response to this legacy, the government is promoting scientific methodologies, data analysis, and the obligation to investigate every case, breaking with historical impunity.
Technology, the State, and justice in action
The Mexican government highlighted a combination of technology and institutional action. This includes a Single Identity Platform, a forensic database, new teams, and a National Alert system that activates 512 institutions to speed up searches. At the same time, the State’s role is being strengthened (100 specialists, new protocols, and a commissioner), with ongoing collaboration with civil society groups and efforts to prevent youth being recruited by organized crime.
Search efforts in the Caribbean: tracking vessels with humanitarian aid
President Sheinbaum reported that the Navy continues searching for two Mexican vessels carrying humanitarian aid to Cuba after losing contact. She explained that the Navy had been tracking three vessels, one of which has already arrived in Cuba, while operations continue in order to locate the other two.
Firm sovereignty: no intervention and territorial control
The President clarified that the crossing of U.S. military personnel into Mexico in Nogales was minimal—just a few meters—unintentional, and that they withdrew immediately after notification, ruling out any violation or intervention in national territory.
