Furthermore, it elucidates instances wherein the absence of support from Mexican authorities is decried. Within this framework, the exposition explicates the rights and state obligations pertaining to these circumstances, employing the perspective of the feminist foreign policy, international commitments, and the Mexican legal corpus.
