In this edition of Wilson Center NOW we speak with Duncan Wood, Director of the Wilson Center’s Mexico Institute, about the upcoming inauguration of Mexico’s President-elect Andrés Manuel López Obrador. Even after a bumpy ride during the post-election transition period, expectations remain relatively high. What immediate challenges will AMLO face after his swearing-in? Can he get off to a fast start, and how will US-Mexico relations change when he takes office?
