Mexico's president announced on Tuesday that relations with the United States and Canada have been put 'on pause' following concerns raised by the two countries over a proposed judicial overhaul in Mexico. The president did not provide details on what this 'pause' would entail, and the Mexican foreign ministry has not commented on the matter.
The proposed judicial overhaul, suggested by the Mexican president during his final weeks in office, has sparked protests, strikes, and criticism from investors and financial institutions. Last week, the American ambassador referred to the proposal as a 'risk' to democracy and warned of potential consequences for Mexico's commercial relationship with the United States.
