Mexico City: Sheinbaum Confirms Meeting with CNTE, Will Not Attend Mexico City – Claudia Sheinbaum, head of government for Mexico City, announced today that a meeting with the National Coordinator of Education Workers (CNTE) will take place, but she will not personally attend. The meeting, already scheduled for days, will involve the Secretaries of Government and Education. "The meeting was arranged days ago," Sheinbaum stated during a press conference, as seen in a recently released video. "I have full confidence in the secretaries to represent me and engage in productive dialogue." The video shows Sheinbaum speaking calmly and directly to the camera.
