Mexico - December 2025
Introduction
We start this December edition of the Latin American Regional Report: Mexico in the western state of Michoacán, where the outspoken, anti-crime mayor of Uruapan municipality was murdered on 1 November. Days later, President Claudia Sheinbaum announced a plan to bring peace to Michoacán, doubling down on her focus on investigation and intelligence, as well as addressing the root causes of crime. Scrutiny will remain high on whether this plan, which mirrors measures being rolled out at the federal level, succeeds in reducing violent crime in Michoacán.
