TAWIL KURI, Marta. Continuity and adjustments in mexican foreign policy towards the arab world and the Middle East: the economic and political agenda. Foro int [online]. 2019, vol.59, n.3-4, pp.907-932.  Epub 15-Ago-2019. ISSN 0185-013X.  https://doi.org/10.24201/fi.v59i3-4.2644.

This text explores the why and the how of the main decisions taken by Mexico with regard to the Middle East and the Arab world during the presidency of President Enrique Peña Nieto (2012-2018). Two arguments are put forward: 1) internal factors largely determined foreign policy discourse and practice towards that region; 2) there was continuity in the principal guidelines and objectives with respect to the previous administration; above all, there were changes in the use of foreign policy instruments, as well as in the implementation of decisions. The examination of these continuities and changes is developed around two interdependent agendas: the economic and the political.

Palabras llave : Middle East; implementation; trade; security; continuity; foreign policy; Mexico.
