Just three years ago, the Pentagon warned that Mexico was at risk of becoming a “failed state”. This interesting article from The Economist notes that the US has been undervaluing its neighbour – and new ‘workshop’ (not one mention of Mexico was made during the presidential debates, while China was mentioned 60 times).
