He is the second son of Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who was President of Mexico from 2018 to 2024.
In September 2024, López Beltrán gained notoriety when his appointment as Secretary of National Organization of the Morena political party was announced.
Biography
López Beltrán studied Political and Social Sciences at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
He is founder and majority owner of Finca Rocío S.A. de C.V., an artisan chocolate company named in honor of his deceased mother. He is also a minority partner of Vinos Cósmicos S.A. de C.V., a wine company founded in 2021.
Political life
López Beltrán has always been close, by filial relationship, to the political party Morena, created in 2014, without holding official positions.
During the 2018 presidential elections, he was in charge of the conformation of the committees for the promotion and defense of the vote of his father's campaign in Mexico City. In early September 2024, President López Obrador confirmed his son's participation in the party's structure, although without specifying the position. According to El País, it was President Claudia Sheinbaum herself who requested López Beltrán's support from the party leadership, and not from the government.
Since October 1, 2024, he has been Morena's Secretary of Organization.
Controversies
The media and civil organizations have pointed out López Beltrán for alleged benefits to friends in government contracts, particularly in projects such as the Dos Bocas refinery and the Villahermosa seawall. In July 2024, Andrés Manuel López Beltrán and his brother Gonzalo published a letter denying these accusations and claiming to be victims of a defamation campaign.
