it is now a question of how much amlo won by.was always ahead, going in 25 points ahead at the most. it was almost impossible for other candidates to defeat. it is difficult to read opinion polls before the votes. it is always worth keeping the outside possibility something might happen. we have seen strange things happen in mexican elections before, especially with amlo who lost in 2006 by a narrow margin. but it looks like not this time. both the opposition candidates have conceded. that leaves it clear for amlo, opposition candidates have conceded. that leaves it clearfor amlo, the left—wing former mayor of mexico city, to be the next mexican president. so, he has talked about cleaning up politics. what does that mean? his whole focus throughout this campaign has been on corruption, stamping it out in the state institutions, stamping it out in medical classes, business elites, and using it to divert towards the poorest. he wants to abandon certain projects already under way that are well over budget. he wants to focus on the w

amlo has promised to do something about it, especially for the poorest people. think he will deliver on that. the bottom 10% only gets about 1.8% of national income and it would not take very much to improve their living standards in terms of redistribution of income. i think he will do something there. but you mentioned, terms of the u.s. relations, u.s. foreign policy, the quote you had about him respecting sovereignty and self-determination and noninterference, and he has also said and is due foreign minister has said things about not supporting hegemony or in other countries. you know, this is normal language for most people in the world, and in latin america of course. but in the u.s., you look at the reaction from the statements, it is like hate speech for them to say that you're going to respect sovereignty and self-determination because they have mobilized these right-wing government and want to topple the venezuelan government, have supported this coup against dilma brazil and the jailing of lula and every thing else. they have a whole plan. government,

so, what challenges will the new leader — best known as amlo — face?ws is mexico's economy grew by 2.4% in 2017, with similar growth rates predicted for this year. but the country faces several interlinked problems. the biggest is mexico's massive violent crime rate, with over 29,000 murders in 2017 alone. aside from the terrible human cost, this statistic also carries an economic weight — the mexico peace index put the cost of the violence at us$249 billion in 2017 — around 21% of mexico's gdp. much of the violence stems from drug trafficking, with rival cartels vying to control the flow of drugs into the united states. it's lead to widespread corruption, with transparency international ranking mexico 135th on an index of 180 countries in 2017. mexico also has high levels of poverty. recent figures from coneval, who measure poverty in mexico, say 43.6% of the population — or 53 million people below the poverty line. meanwhile the wealthiest 20% of the population earns 10 times as much as the poorest 20%. president elect lopez 0brador has talked tough
