Yanis Varoufakis on Cuba, Mexico, rising East-West tensions and the need for a new democracy
This short interview cannot be embedded, but I encourage you to listen. Thanks to Col who found this for us.
A question arose during the interview, talking about AMLO’s early morning ‘matutina’ conferences. The interviewer asked whether the Mexicans actually listen to these. Yanis said, yes, they do. On that point, even I listen to these if I want Mexican information. If I ask my friends in Mexico anything, they will more often than not refer me to a matutina. And these are fun. They run a section that exposes the lies of the day, and AMLO brings in a specialist to talk about it. If you are interested, here is one where they expose the lies about a major train development. You can turn to English subtitles. For this real interaction with the real community, AMLO gets called a populist.
