World Cries Out “Sovereignty, Not Subordination” Soberanía 92
In episode 92 of Soberanía, we begin by looking at how much can change in just two weeks, using Mark Carney’s comments at the World Economic Forum as a starting point to discuss shifting economic and political signals and what they mean for Mexico’s Claudia Sheinbaum. The conversation then turns to Mexico’s decision to expel criminal figures and what that action reveals about US pressure on Mexico. In the third segment, we examine Mexico’s push toward universal health care, focusing specifically on the rollout of new Mexican health cards and what they mean in practice for access and coverage. Finally, in Loser and Haters we pick on the Mexican opposition.
