Mexico: APPO Leader Flavio Sosa Arrested

Mark in Mexico has four updates on the arrest of APPO leader Flavio Sosa ^[1] in Mexico City. Juan Trujillo is far less enthusiastic ^[2] about the detention and notes that “the spokesperson for the APPO, Florentino López, announced from hiding the start of a series of protests nationally and internationally to demand the liberation of these APPO leaders that were arrested Monday in Mexico City.” Ricardo Carreón wonders if the detention signals a stronger presidency ^[3]. Ana Maria Salazar says ^[4] yes: “this detention will be interpreted as the new policy of cero tolerance by the Calderón administration. Hit and then negotiate.”
