Speakers:
Claudia Sheinbaum’s resounding win in Mexico’s June 7 elections, along with her party’s victories in legislative and gubernatorial elections, marks the ascendancy of President López Obrador’s Morena movement and ensures the continuation of his program of state-directed investment and social programs.
As president, Sheinbaum will face a variety of pressing challenges, including unprecedented violence, energy and water shortages, and unrealized economic potential. Moreover, before Sheinbaum takes office, López Obrador plans to push through constitutional reforms that could further erode democracy and divide an already polarized country.
Join Hudson Institute for a conversation with Luis Rubio, chairman of México Evalúa and former president of Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos Exteriores (COMEXI), on Mexico’s new political landscape.
