It was a pleasure meeting with @Claudiashein and @USAmbMex today. We discussed key U.S. priorities, including:
➡️Strengthening Mexico’s efforts against narcoterrorists
➡️Sustaining progress in the fight against human smuggling and illegal narcotics
➡️Reinforcing operational commitments to our shared border security and preventing illegal migration
Under @potus we’ve achieved historic U.S. border security. Strong partnerships and continued coordination are key to Make America Safe Again.
If Mexico truly wants investment to recover, companies need guarantees that the rules of the game will not shift at the first sign of political pressure, says @JPSpinetto (via @opinion) https://t.co/YSvRR4rYUk
Detrás de cada tensión con Washington, hay una gran pregunta:
¿Qué relación está construyendo México con EEUU?
En este video de Norteamérica Sin Filtro, platico con @anapordorica sobre las negociaciones entre ambos países. Esto y + en mi instagram 👇🏽

TODO ESTO SOLO HOY 🇲🇽 🇺🇸
1. El Srio de Guerra Hegseth dice que si México no actúa contra los cárteles lo va a hacer EEUU.
2. El Jefe de la DEA dice que la acusación al gobernador de Sinaloa y otros es “solo el principio” de lo que viene para México.
3. CNN reporta que la CIA realiza operaciones contra cárteles en México desde el año pasado y ofrece un video como muestra.
4. El Secretario de Seguridad de México niega el reporte de CNN.
Este día quedará como uno de los de mayor tensión en la historia de la relación bilateral…

CONFIRMED: Mexico President Sheinbaum says in her morning "mañanera" news conference that her administration has put forward @robertolazzeri's name for ambassador to the US, and is awaiting Trump administration approval.
We first reported her eyeing Lazzeri for the job yesterday
Interesting signaling from the WSJ on Sheinbaum’s potential successor. A García Harfuch rise will boost investment certainty in 🇲🇽, as he’s widely seen outside the López Obrador camp.
They sing folk ballads in his honor, call him ”daddy” and buy blankets and pillows adorned with his manly likeness. Behind Mexico’s odd infatuation with the country’s top cop. https://t.co/T9NYuv5w2f

We exchanged views on shared priorities under the U.S.-Mexico Action Plan on Critical Minerals and discussed broader regional and financial issues of mutual interest, including our joint priority to combat illicit finance.

Lawyers’ value add is judgement & intuition in a specific sector/practice.
US co's & HNWI's bunkering down on deal exit structures in Mexico. I'm very skeptical of all the US->Mexico capital flow data w/Political risk from judicial reform. Def good deals to be had in Mexico, but important to "circumvent" local actors as much as possible.
