• Investigation Podemos payments to the Neurona company ended up in a neighborhood in Mexico

  • 2019 campaign Neurona diverted Podemos money to a Mexican cover with false 'communication strategy' invoices

Deputies of the former ruling

Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) on

Tuesday asked the

Financial Intelligence Unit (UIF) of Mexico to

investigate whether the party of President

Andrés Manuel López Obrador

received funding from

Podemos.

As indicated, the investigation seeks to know if the financing could be used to carry out proselytizing activities during the 2020-2021 electoral campaign, which ended with the June 6 elections. The PRI deputy

Mariana Rodríguez

urged the head of the Mexican government's FIU,

Santiago Nieto,

to undertake the investigation. "An investigation is urgent to clarify the type of help that Morena (the ruling

National Regeneration Movement) received

and whether or not this affected the 2021 electoral contest, and whether of course this constitutes a crime," the deputy said.

In addition, he indicated that "there are suspicions of the use of illegal resources" to influence electoral processes, especially the participation of foreign companies in the design of political campaigns in Mexico.

He recalled that in mid-November of last year, various media in Mexico and

Spain

reported the alleged existence of millionaire deviations from the Spanish political party Podemos to finance Morena's activities.

"According to various media,

Podemos diverted 308,000 euros,

approximately seven and a half million pesos, of public funds in 2019 to benefit companies linked to Morena, through the alleged provision of strategic consulting and marketing services," he said.

Given this, the deputy Rodríguez considered it necessary that "the electoral authorities carry out a thorough investigation to clarify this alleged intervention by foreign companies."

On June 6, a historic election took place in Mexico, the largest in the country, in which 93 million people were summoned to elect the 500 federal deputies, 15 of 32 state governors, 30 local congresses and more than 1,900 city councils. .
