Jesús Antonio Esteva Medina will be Secretary of Infrastructure, Communications and Transport, and Edna Elena Vega Rangel, Secretary of Agrarian, Territorial and Urban Development.
Sheinbaum explained that he only introduced five members this Thursday, since Rogelio Ramírez de la O, from whom he had advanced that he would continue as secretary of Finance and Public Credit.
“It is important to know that Raquel (Buenrostro Sánchez) continues to serve as Secretary of Economy in the Government of President López Obrador, does not leave that position; Jesus (Antonio Esteva) continues to serve as Secretary of Works of the Government of Mexico City, does not leave office for now, and also Edna ( Vega Rangel) as undersecretary of Sedatu (Secretariat of Agrarian, Territorial and Urban Development)”, said Sheinbaum about the officials, who will begin the new functions once the new president assumes in September.
A week ago, Sheinbaum presented Marcelo Ebrard as Secretary of Economy; Alicia Bárcena, Secretary of Environment and Natural Resources; Juan Ramón de la Fuente, Secretary of External Relations; Rosaura Ruiz in front of the Secretary of Science, Humanities, Technology and Innovation, as well as Julio Antonio Berdegué, from Agriculture.
