Romero Deschamps wasn't invited to the party

Carlos Romero Deschamps

, the leader of Pemex's union , wasn't surprised he didn't receive an official invitation to the event to commemorate oil expropriation . During the planning of the event, the message was clear, as Romero Deschamps was ignored.

The National Commission to Search for Victims of Enforced Disappearance is back

Almost a year and a half after the National Commission to Search for Victims of Enforced Disappearance was created in 2017 , and six months after its establishment, in October 2018 , this week, the organization will finally be revived. The commission was abandoned by the previous administration but now it will be reinstated with the participation of all Governors , every state prosecutor , and Alejandro Gertz Manero , the h ead of Mexico's General Prosecutor's Office . We've been told that this commission is important because the search for the person missing will begin as soon as their disappearance is reported so that they can be found alive; therefore, the coordination between all the national and state search commissions is required, as well as the cooperation of all the prosecutors . It will also have to implement forensic science to identify 26,000 corpses .
