because it was decided in accordance with a decree to recover for the nation a section of the southeastern railroad track on the isthmus of Tehuantepec and an agreement was reached to voluntarily hand over this section of concession that is strategic because it is the isthmus. Today, which is Navy Day, I am going to talk about the strategic nature of the Port of Tampico, especially before the oil expropriation because it was threat after threat. that they were going to invade us for oil because they did not want the oil that belongs to the people to be recovered and belongs to the nation, so the foreign oil companies had control of this entire Gulf region.

There was even talk of an intervention to create the Republic of the Gulf for the interests, let us not forget that the first oil well was drilled nearby in Ébano in 1901 by a foreign company and Tampico was a port and the isthmus of Tehuantepec continues to be very important strategically, imagine the narrowest strip of our country to communicate to the Pacific with the Atlantic The Pacific with the Gulf has been coveted for centuries for that strip and that is why the decree was made to consider it a zone of national security and public utility and that was what led to the recovery of this section because practically the entire route of the southeast is recovered and it belongs to the nation but this section of 120,140 kilometers was missing and an agreement was reached and an appraisal was made.

They are going to return the concession and in the section from El istmo to Veracruz the concession is extended to eight years. they are paid if not their concession is extended by eight years for giving up the section of the isthmus yesterday Ah no, yesterday was the last day this to be able to reach the fourth two thousand thirty-six is ​​eight more years it is going to be two thousand forty-four why don't you put the Yes plan so that this was a good agreement because the Secretariat of the Navy is going to operate the entire Isthmus Railway now they are going to see what the public company of the Secretariat of the Navy is going to be responsible for managing.

The railway is the two ports three four Puerto Chiapas Salina Cruz Coatzacoalcos and two mouths there is another one on the particular section yes yes This was the one concessioned to the Mexico group this and from here to here of the nation all this of the nation here no And Yes, from here all of Palenque and here comes the Mayan train, everything in the nation was this 128 kilometers plus annexes, 180 in total, so this was the agreement and I think it is beneficial, and I repeat, it is a matter of national security. Yesterday I said that we do not get involved. international confrontations between powers, but we want to keep our territory, our sovereignty, intact, and it is a very important project because it is about uniting the Pacific with the Gulf.

We are talking about nothing more than 250 to 300 kilometers and we are investing. By August, the new road will be finished. and it's going to start The freight train will start working and then the passenger train and the same for here we are rehabilitating the track and the same until Palenque and the Mayan train there are a total of 15 40 1548 kilometers that already includes Tabasco Chiapas Campeche Yucatán and Quintana Roo all this, this region with all these projects because here we are in Salina Cruz rehabilitating the refinery that existed and we are building a new coking plant in Coatzacoalcos Minatitlán the refinery is also being modernized the ports of Coatzacoalcos are being expanded this Salina Cruz with breakwaters is a port with quite a lot of depth and here in this entire corridor there are already ten industrial parks so that jobs can be created so that is why we needed this the one that expands the WhatsApp condition of media agua is this this is the crossing here goes to Veracruz this concession the They have half waters to Veracruz Yes and But they had up to Coatzacoalcos to see This is Yes but it is also clear the other so They had up to here So this part is what they are returning which is the one that has to do with the isthmus which is half Aguas, what is called Medias Aguas, this town is a crossing from here to here the train goes to Salina Cruz, it is the entire isthmus and from here to here it is Veracruz and this and also to here Everything is the Mayan train everything everything is already The nation is everything that the Southeastern Railway is, the concession that they have, they have no others, it is nothing more than what is known as the Southeastern Railway, basically.
