“One thing that I didn’t like yesterday with the incident at the Capitol is that I don’t like censorship,” Obrador said. “I don’t like anyone to be censored and for them to have their right taken away to send a message on Twitter or on Facebook.”
He went on to call the violence at the Capitol this week “unfortunate,” but said it is important Mexico doesn’t take a position.
He also said he hopes democracy prevails.
