MEXICO CITY — The most historic legacy of President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, a left-leaning resource nationalist who casts his administration as a turning point in the annals of Mexico, may be to pave the way for the country’s first woman leader.
President Lopez Obrador’s popularity stems from his personal, austere, simple way of governing,” Sheinbaum said.
Many of Lopez Obrador’s biggest public works look increasingly like they will not be completed on his watch.
One cloud hanging over MORENA domination is Mexico City, a bastion of the Mexican left which unites the president, Sheinbaum and Ebrard, who succeeded Lopez Obrador as mayor.
In May 2021, a Mexico City metro overpass collapsed, killing or injuring dozens of people.
