Post by London Politica

We have witnessed a very eventful week in #LatinAmerica and the Latin America Watch at London Politica has decided to bring you a special Sunday newsletter to explain and summarise all that’s happened this week. On one hand we have seen many political and democratic crises which include: ➡️Cristina Kirchner, the vice-president of #Argentina being charged for corruption; ➡️Pedro Castillo in #Peru attempting a self-coup which led to Dina Boluarte becoming the country’s first female president; and ➡️Andrés Manuel López Obrador passing a controversial electoral reform in #Mexico. On the other hand: ➡️We noticed high levels of tensions at the 61st summit of #Mercosur during discussion on trade. ➡️#Chile signed an Advanced Framework Agreement with the #EuropeanUnion. ➡️Lula announced some of his cabinet members in #Brazil. This exciting first newsletter is written by Elin. Roberts, Martina Zanetto, and Orlando M.. We hope you enjoy it. Happy reading! #londonpolitica #politics #internationalrelations #politicalrisk #crisis #americas #americalatina #newsletter #sunday
