MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Thousands of protesters marched through central Mexico City on Saturday in one of the biggest demonstrations against President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador since he took office nearly two years ago.

Many of the demonstrators who flocked to the massive main square of the capital's historic center waved Mexican flags while some chanted "Lopez out," according to video footage on news sites and social media.
