lol thats bullshit, the us simply cannot break trade relations with mexico.
You say that like the US would not try to strong arm and threaten to break trade relations. This is something I 100% see happening, and I hope, and truthfully expect Mexico to stand up to, but it is something I see as very likely for the US to attempt
Its empty threats, they literally cant decouple from México. In fact many industries are moving their production to México in what they call “nearshoring” in an attempt to decouple from China. They can’t decouple from China and México at the same time.
This conjuction provides a ton of leverage for México, which fortunely coincided with the first nationalist gov in decades.
biden told mexico not to extend tax benefits for chinese near shore manufacturing for EV’s to protect american companies and that’s exactly what the mexico did last month; to the detriment of all mexicans.
Fortunately for us mexicans, the USA has a lot in its plate at the moment with the active fronts and their plans to destabilize China with Taiwan. The current pressure over our country is with the reform of the judiciary branch, the energy sector(where even Washington’s John Kerry came to extort us) and their implementation of the migrant “solution”. Some of the pressure is done through the NED funding of some prominent ONGs that in turn fund the opposition to Morena.
Sorry, I should have said “rupture” instead of “break”
I mean the relationship will rapidly change in ways that are hard to predict, and for the worse. Mexico is already seeking to join BRICS and attracting a lot of Chinese investment, these are antithetical to US interests.
This could also result in some Jakarta Method bullshit to remove her and install a US puppet to hunt down leftists.
Mexico has not expressed interest in joining BRICS actually, this has been officially debunked:
This has been a talking point pushed by the (comprador) opposition to align us with “the axis of evil”, AKA the wrong side of history (fucking liberals) but its not true. Mexico is in an unique spot compared to other global south nations, our main trading partner is the US we cannot simply detach so its in our best interest to play both sides in this unique situation.
Very true. However, while playing both sides, we have fortunately gotten close to China and Rusia. If this trading partnership grows while the USA exhausts itself, it leaves us in a similar position as Brazil who is in both the G7 and BRICs.
