This week on Soberanía, Kurt Hackbarth and José Luis Granados Ceja bundle up for a freezing Mexico City episode and break down three stories that reveal where Mexico stands in today’s shifting global politics. First, they explore Mexico and the “old world” — new meetings between Mexico, France, Spain, the EU and CELAC, and what these diplomatic moves say about Latin America’s growing independence from European influence. Then they turn to Ricardo Salinas Pliego, as Mexico’s most notorious oligarch finally faces the Supreme Court after years of legal dodges by his companies. The hosts unpack what this long-delayed reckoning means for accountability and the balance between power and money in Mexico. Finally, they examine Israel’s false claim of an “Iranian plot” in Mexico, how the story unraveled, and what it reveals about media manipulation and foreign attempts to drag Mexico into geopolitical narratives. And as always, it all wraps up with Losers and Haters of the Week, this time focusing on the so-called Gen Z protests and how they’re being weaponized by the opposition and media to push an anti-government narrative.
