Kevin Roberts, the president of the Heritage Foundation, spoke at the third annual US - Mexico Policy Summit. The National Interest has the text of his recent speech, presented as an article. Roberts is very tough on Mexico, and almost equally tough on the policies of both nations in the recent past. For example.
Together, Joe Biden and Andrés Manuel López Obrador represented the worst versions of American and Mexican leadership that have hurt our countries for decades.
Biden and Lopez Obrador’s disastrous leadership was not an anomaly—it was the most destructive example of a longstanding dynamic in the US-Mexico relationship stretching back to NAFTA. American leaders undermined sovereignty, exported jobs, and imported labor in the naive hope that Mexico would liberalize. Mexican leaders took advantage, empowered cartels, and consolidated power in Mexico City.
Roberts really gives Mexico an earful of bad news, and much of it has needed saying for a long time. I think you might like to read his speech.
