Mexico's Right-Wing Opposition Rebrands: Just a Flash in the "PAN"

from Soberanía: The Mexican Politics Podcast · host Soberanía Podcast

In this episode of Soberanía, hosts José Luis Granados Ceja and Kurt Hackbarth unpack the supposed relaunch of Mexico's right-wing party, the PAN: can it really reclaim relevance with the same people peddling the same program, simply by means of an updated logo? José Luis and Kurt then shift to the government’s response to recent torrental rains and flooding in five states, assessing preparedness, relief efforts, and attempts by the opposition, as always, to make political hay out of a natural disaster. They then turn to foreign policy, as President Sheinbaum steps up sales of excess diesel to Cuba, despite the anachronistic whining of the same tired voices from the cold-war generation. One of them is then profiled in our regular Losers & Haters segment: a familiar figure to longtime listeners.
