Mexican Government Lashes Out at U.S. Ambassador Over Judicial Reform “Interference”

Mexico’s President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador announced that his staff was sending a diplomatic notice complaining about the actions of U.S. Ambassador Ken Salazar by interfering in judicial reform. The reforms called for having judges in Mexico be elected rather than selected. The U.S. diplomat published a letter warning that the proposed judicial reform could damage the country’s democracy and hurt the commercial relationship between the two countries.
