MEXICO CITY - Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Saturday said a metallic barrier to wall off the presidential palace ahead of a planned women’s march on International Women’s Day was to avoid provocation and protect historic buildings from vandalism.
In a country where femicides rose nearly 130% between 2015 and 2020, critics said the decision to erect the 10-foot-high barriers was symptomatic of Lopez Obrador’s apathy toward the crisis of violence afflicting women. “We have to avoid provocation of people who only want to cause damage,” Lopez Obrador said at an event in Yucatan. “Imagine, if we don’t take care of the national palace and they vandalize it. What image will this send to the world?”
“The presidency was stolen from us ... and we protested but never broke glass. ... I walked two, three times all the way from Tabasco to Mexico City,” he said. Lopez Obrador has repeatedly accused opponents of electoral fraud over the years.Interior Minister Olga Sanchez Cordero said on Twitter that the barriers were “for the protection of the women.”

But the U.S. border wall doesn't work 🥴!
Except it is not to 'protect' against women and it is not unlike the fence around the Capitol. The reasons for having a fence around the Capitol are the same reasons that fence was erected. Is Biden having to 'defend' the fence?
