Mexico's Transactions with the United States

 Mexico's Transactions with the United States Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero Some analysts continue to find it surprising that Mexico is reacting slowly to threats from the United States. Although it is stressed that the country should organize itself as Ukraine did with regard to Russia, the truth is that the interdependence of Mexico and the United States has so many elements that integration is more evident than fracture; a North American military intervention can even fragment convergences and values ​​understood in certain aspects. The manifest governmental apathy seems to indicate that Mexico lives in relation to the United States under a prolonged Indentured Servant, that is, the labor servitude that has been so important for the subsidy of the North American economy during the centuries of its existence and that, whatever happens, Mexican slavery will end up mitigating the economic crisis in North America. The indentured servant has been a condition of several nationaliti...

Mexican Cartels: Coarsairs Meaning

Mexican Cartels: Coarsairs Meaning  Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero According to George Friedman, there is a connection between businessmen, government and drug cartels that supposed a prospective attack on the United States in 2080. This logic, however, corresponds to the history of England and the Anglo-Saxon culture that encouraged piracy while protecting the protagonists of the robbery and trafficking.

Le Pen's death shows the trajectory of a militant, abrupt and politically incorrect right that has functioned as a receptacle for electoral tendencies contrary to traditional political parties and Macronism; however, the trajectory of the French right surpasses the National Front. Although the Le Pens have accessed the runoff for the presidency of the republic on a couple of occasions, this has not put the French political order at risk, in fact, it can be said, this militant right has served as a halter for the neoliberal vision to become hegemonic. There are other important right-wing parties in France, not as combative - electorally speaking - as the National Front has been, but with a significant historical b...

Tricky Old Trumpy Trump

Tricky Old Trumpy Trump  Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero   Although many analysts and scholars revel in the terror caused by the future president of the United States, there are also those who assume that the threats of the New York businessman are simply threats and blackmail to induce the collaboration of the Mexican government. In any case, the relationship with the northern neighbor represents an enormous commitment for the Mexican government, which also faces constant evaluation by its detractors. In retrospect, and observing Donald Trump's experience at the head of the White House between 2017 and 2021, it is evident that he did not even manage to carry out half of the threats he made against Mexicans in a situation of illegal immigration; mainly in relation to the border wall and mass deportations. On the other hand, although drug trafficking is one of the most serious problems in Mexico, its magnitude is different in the United States. For the United States, this...
