Claudia Sheinbaum Swearing-in LIVE: Mexico's First Female President Sheinbaum Inauguration | Mexico News LIVE | CNBC TV18
Claudia Sheinbaum takes office Tuesday as Mexico’s first female president in the nation’s more than 200 years of independence.
The 62-year-old former Mexico City mayor and lifelong leftist campaigned on a promise of continuity, of protecting and expanding the signature initiatives of her mentor, former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
In the four months between her election and inauguration she held that line, backing López Obrador on issues big and small. But Sheinbaum is a very different person; she likes data and doesn’t have López Obrador’s backslapping personal touch.
She’s a climate scientist and the first female to take the highest office in Mexico. As Sheinbaum starts her term, she faces challenges internally and externally. Listen to Mexico City based journalists Cassandra Garrison and Stephen Eisenhammer as they explore Mexico's strained economy, diplomatic relations with the U.S., Sheinbaum's possible approach to Mexico's organized crime cartels, and more.
