Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said that she filed a complaint against a man who groped and tried to kiss her as she greeted members of the public, a day after a video of the incident went viral.
Sheinbaum, the Latin American nation’s first woman leader, said at her regular morning news conference on Wednesday that the incident was a crime, adding that she, like other women in Mexico, have experienced similar situations previously.
“If this happens to the president walking down the street, then what happens to other young women,” Sheinbaum said.
