Claudia Sheinbaum: What’s Next for US-Mexico Relations [[link removed]]
Tuesday, October 8 // 3:00–4:30 pm (ET)
On October 1, 2024 Mexico inaugurated its next president, Claudia Sheinbaum, who will be the first woman to lead the country in its history. This moment of transition comes at a pivotal moment in the US-Mexico relationship, as trade between the two countries is at an all time high, and both face highly polarized political environments at home.
To help break down what a Sheinbaum administration will mean for bilateral relations, the Mexico Institute is organizing a roundtable discussion with former US and Mexican Ambassadors on Tuesday, October 8th from 3:00-4:30pm EST. This conversation will explore how Claudia Sheinbaum’s proposed strategies on security, trade, migration, and Mexico’s political climate, will impact the US-Mexico relationship.
