Between pressure and cooperation: bilateral secutiry and the review of the USMCA
In recent weeks, security has once again taken center stage in the bilateral relationship between Mexico and the United States, following a period of coordination and institutional agreements.
Recent events, such as the situations in Chihuahua and Sinaloa, have created one of the most tense moments in the bilateral relationship, generating uncertainty about the potential impact on the review of the USMCA.
However, despite the hardening of political rhetoric and recent disagreements, there are signs of cooperation on other fronts, suggesting a duality.
To what extent will this dynamic ultimately influence the review of the USMCA and the bilateral economic agenda?
