Speaking in the United States Capital, Governor Enrique Peña Nieto said he will not make any pact with the drug gangs should he elected president.
More notable still than this rather obvious declaration was his claim that there is a "black campaign" orchestrated against the PRI in the United States and elsewhere in the exterior, which appears both a general response to very valid critiques of the PRI governments in the 1980s and 1990s, where organized crime was essentially left alone, as well as to Felipe Calderón's warnings against the return of the PRI to the Mexican presidency.
Even former President Carlos Salinas, in a presentation of his book in Spain, felt compelled to declare that his government did fight organized crime.
PRI, now playing the victim.
