Rather than viewing Mexico’s transformation through a Cold War-era lens of democracy versus tyranny, it is crucial to appreciate the complexities and legitimate grievances driving Mexico’s ongoing changes. A response to MIcahel Stott's September 25th article. https://www.ft.com/content/c28020e0-d4ef-4c58-b7b8-7b63521b36e5 Michael Stott’s article offers a narrow and biased interpretation of Mexico’s recent political and economic shifts under President López Obrador and his suc

Mexico possesses a rich geographical and climatic diversity that positions it as a country with high potential for generating renewable energy. 1. Mexico possesses enormous potential in renewable energies thanks to its geographical and climatic richness, positioning it to lead the energy transition in Latin America. 2. The successful experiences of countries like Iceland, Costa Rica, Germany, and Uruguay demonstrate that it is possible to reduce dependence on fossil fuels t

Without optimal health, it's impossible to fully enjoy activities such as education, work, sports, and leisure. Health has been a vital concern since the dawn of humanity. Without optimal health, it's impossible to fully enjoy activities such as education, work, sports, and leisure. Today, we face increasingly complex health challenges that require comprehensive and collaborative solutions. Among the main illnesses that significantly impact global health are infectious diseas

Regional prosperity integration  is a strategic approach where neighbouring countries collaborate to create a unified economic region that promotes shared growth, innovation, and sustainability. There’s growing confusion in Mexico between nearshoring and the 1990s Maquila initiative. As we navigate global trade today, it’s crucial to distinguish these concepts and embrace a new vision that leverages Mexico’s potential. This vision should be reframed as North American Prosperi

Traditionally, historic centres symbolise the political epicentres of their cities. The Historic Centre of Mexico City, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 11 December 1987, has always been the pulsating heart of the nation’s capital. From the rise and fall of the great Tenochtitlán to modern-day marches, concerts, and markets, it has witnessed centuries of cultural convergence and historical events. Traditionally, historic centres symbolise the political epicentres of their c

Our team gathered insights from Germany, France, Italy, the United States, the United Kingdom, China, and Singapore. The COVID-19 pandemic irrevocably changed how we perceive work, community, and solidarity. It wasn't just a health crisis; it was a global challenge that tested the very fabric of our societies. As the head of the COVID-19 Task Force at Mexico's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I had the profound responsibility of steering a team through these unprecedented times.

La energía nuclear, generada mediante reacciones de fisión atómica, es una de las fuentes más limpias en términos de emisiones de carbono. La energía nuclear ha sido objeto de controversia durante décadas, principalmente debido a estigmas asociados a desastres históricos como Chernóbil y Fukushima. Sin embargo, ante la urgente necesidad de fuentes de energía limpias para combatir el cambio climático, es imperativo reconsiderar su papel como una alternativa viable y eficiente.

One of the fundamental pillars of Mexico's energy strategy is energy sovereignty. Attracting investment into the energy sector is crucial for Mexico's economic and social development. The country faces the challenge of balancing its national priorities with the demands of a rapidly evolving global energy market. In a global context where fossil fuels still dominate the energy matrix, but renewable energies are gaining ground, Mexico has a unique opportunity to position itself

Private institutions like Médica Sur also enrich and complement the nation's medical services. Mexico City is home to one of the world's most significant hubs of medical science, particularly in the famed Zona de Hospitales in the Tlalpan district. This area hosts 13 public high-specialty hospitals, including the Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Médicas y Nutrición "Salvador Zubirán," Instituto Nacional de Cancerología, Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Respiratorias, and Inst

he COVID-19 pandemic exposed many deficiencies in healthcare systems, but not only that, it also revealed the fragility of community policies, self-care, and coverage in this area. In 2023, after the pandemic, a group of my team worked on finding ten pillars that could transform the Mexican life experience through health. Such a process enabled us to realise the vast array of assets Mexico has and how, through proper coordination and eliminating silos, the current assets coul

Countries like Japan, China, and Germany have reaped the benefits of high-speed trains that integrate economies, boost regional development, and bring people closer together. The New Mexican Rail Development Plan represents a vision to transform the country by fostering social inclusion, well-being, and international cooperation through a modernized rail system. This ambitious project aims not only to connect the northern, central, and southern regions of Mexico but also to

El desarrollo de la red ferroviaria tiene el potencial de transformar tanto la movilidad como el desarrollo económico y social de México. La integración social sucede en función de cómo las comunidades comparten valores. Es decir, conforme comparten entendimientos comunes de lo que es su experiencia de vida se genera una experiencia común colectiva. El Estado juega un papel directo en guiar qué experiencias comunes tendrán los mexicanos. Dichas experiencias van desde generar

La ausencia de medios de transporte disponibles y asequibles ha propiciado que estas zonas crezcan como silos independientes la una de la otra. Un mes después de haber ganado las elecciones presidenciales, la Dra. Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo anunció un plan para la construcción de tres rutas de tren de pasajeros. El proyecto considerado incluye trazos que van, el primero, desde el Aeropuerto Internacional Felipe Ángeles (AIFA) hasta Pachuca; el segundo, conectando México-San Luis

Ahora, el verdadero reto es transformar este potencial económico en prosperidad compartida. La idea de una nación próspera es un concepto al que cualquier persona aspira. Vivir en un país libre, seguro, desarrollado, con oportunidades, es casi una concepción inconsciente que tenemos de cómo debería funcionar cualquier país. Ejemplos en el mundo sobran; por supuesto, ninguno de ellos siendo el modelo perfecto, pero sí referencias y casos de éxito que nos han mostrado a través

El origen del Atlas de Prosperidad se remonta a mi encargo en la Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores, cuando rediseñé el sistema de promoción de inversión. La grandeza de México se cimienta en un consenso milenario que trasciende generaciones: históricamente, nuestro país ha  progresado cuando desde lo público se defiende que la verdadera prosperidad reside más allá de la acumulación de riqueza material, y reconoce lo elemental del bienestar común y justicia compartidas. La p
