México Decoded – 27 de Septiembre de 2025
La semana ha estado marcada por una serie de eventos que delinean un panorama geopolítico y económico complejo en México, con implicaciones tanto a nivel nacional como internacional. Desde la fuerte declaración del presidente Sheinbaum sobre la situación en Gaza hasta la reestructuración de mercados y tensiones comerciales, analicemos los puntos clave:
1. Sheinbaum Llamando “Genocidio” a la Asalto Israelí en Gaza
México’s President Claudia Sheinbaum, the country’s first Jewish leader, called Israel’s military campaign in Gaza “genocide.” It’s her strongest stance yet after months of only urging a ceasefire. This bold move risks friction with allies like the U.S., staking a moral position instead of balancing opinions. The decision underlines a shift in Mexico’s foreign policy, prioritizing human rights concerns amidst international conflict.
2. Canadá y México Cierran Ranks ante las Tensiones con EEUU
On September 18, Canada’s Mark Carney met Sheinbaum in Mexico City, the first bilateral visit by a Canadian PM since 2017. The two leaders announced a new 2025–2028 Action Plan which outlines investment on port and rail infrastructure, aerospace, and energy, as well as cooperation on agriculture through temporary work permits. This strategic alliance signals a response to rising trade tensions with the United States, particularly with Donald Trump back in power and the free trade agreement between Mexico, Canada and the US being potentially renegotiated.
3. El Caso de los Jensens: Un Robo de Petróleo Internacional
The Jensens, an oil tycoon family from Utah, allegedly smuggled nearly 3,000 shipments of Pemex crude to Texas, disguising them as “waste oil” and worked with the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, one of Mexico’s largest criminal groups, to tap it out of pipelines operated by Pemex, Mexico’s state oil company. This international fuel heist, perpetrated by American citizens, highlights the ongoing challenges Mexico faces in securing its energy resources and underscores the need for enhanced cross-border law enforcement cooperation.
4. Grupo México Baja su Rail del Mercado de Valores
Controversial mining giant Grupo México will spend $762M USD to buy back its rail unit, Ferromex, delisting it from the Mexican Stock Exchange. Notably, Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim, who already owns part of the company through his holding Grupo Carso announced he will not participate in the bid. This move reflects a broader trend of Mexican firms seeking private ownership due to low liquidity and increasingly strict regulatory environments, suggesting a preference for quiet operation, particularly given Grupo México’s history of controversial operations and environmental concerns.
5. México City Grants Students Menstrual Leave – Un Primer a Nivel Latinoamericano
Mexico City will grant students menstrual leave, a Latin American first. The measure will allow students in severe pain to take an unspecified number of days off. Similar policies exist in Japan, Spain, and South Korea, but remain rare worldwide. This innovative initiative, recognizing the significant impact of period pain on student attendance, demonstrates a commitment to inclusivity and flexibility, aiming to ensure young women remain in education without falling behind.
