Where the UK meets Latin America and Iberia

In just three months of Andrés Manuel López Obrador´s presidency, Mexico´s political landscape has shifted considerably. The country´s 120 million inhabitants makes it an indispensable economy for British companies and investors – which is why Canning House believes it is timely to develop a granular understanding of the opportunities and risks AMLO’s presidency holds.

On 23 January, Juan Guaidó, the president of Venezuela’s National Assembly (AN), formally declared himself as the country’s interim president and said that he will now seek to organise a new general election process to elect a successor to the de facto president, Nicolás Maduro. What’s next for Venezuela? Canning House and LatinNews discuss.

Canning House will be joined by Jon Farmer, Gunther Baumgarten and Constance Malleret from LatinNews to analyse the 2018 elections in Latin America, and forecast the shifting political landscape in 2019, with a particular – but not exclusive – focus on Brazil and Mexico.
