MEXICO CITY – National Regeneration Movement (Morena) coordinator Andrés Manuel López Beltrán took over leadership of a blockade outside the Mexican Senate yesterday, as his father Andrés Manuel López Obrador recovers from surgery after a heart attack.

Critics of López Beltrán – the second son of López Obrador – reminded media that in 2009, he was accused of wearing a pair of Louis Vuitton tennis shoes that may have been worth $800.

López Beltrán said that the human chain is only the first phase of peaceful civil disobedience against energy reform, which is set to be presented in the coming days.

At the rally, López Beltrán thanked all of the demonstrators for the messages of support for his father, who remains in a hospital in the south of the city.
