Enrique Pena Nieto was the overwhelming favorite in polls from the beginning of the presidential election campaign in Mexico. In fact, the candidate of the PRI (Institutional Revolutionary Party) enjoyed a nearly ideal situation. The track record of the National Action Party (PAN), in power for a dozen years, was mixed at best, with the country experiencing very serious social, economic and security problems. The PRI, after leading the country continuously from 1929 to 2000, has undergone significant changes: it is no longer the authoritarian party of yesteryear, but a modern and now fully democratic organization. However, the best argument for Mr. Pena Nieto is in fact ... himself! Just 46, he can already boast of his successes as the head of the State of Mexico, the most populous state in the country, where he was governor from 2005 to 2011. In an exclusive interview with Politique Internationale, this lawyer-who looks more like a young leading man-discusses his extensive plans in detail. Adapted from the source document.
