Historically Mexico has been plagued with political strife. The rise of dictators and the crushing weight of colonialism has kept the country of Mexico from thriving in society. We, however, have persevered and created a free and safe political stage. The Mexican government has a free government allowing the Mexican people to vote and run for office. Although Mexico has triumphed through hardships a new threat has risen to power in our country. Drug Cartels have run rampant throughout the great country of Mexico. Mexican political safety is under threat by these giant criminal enterprises.
Mexico has declared war on drug cartels and emphasizes the importance of preventing organized crime from influencing elections. With foreign interference in our politics now diminished, we recognize the necessity of ensuring a free and fair electoral process. During this time of crisis, Mexico believes that the United Nations should prioritize the preservation of democracy and work to undermine the power held by criminal enterprises. Also, recognizing that transnational crime affects multiple countries, Mexico advocates for a collective international response to combat it. We are interested in forming a multinational alliance to not only establish laws against crime but also to take concrete actions to dismantle these organizations. Mexico is also seeking financial aid to effectively eliminate the largest transnational crime groups in the world.
Mexico is willing to work with the UNODC to combat these criminals for the protection of democracy. Mexico has been democratic for over 100 years and has battled tyrants and coups. Mexico refuses to allow organized crime to overthrow the current democracy within Mexico. Mexico has created numerous programs to stop organized crime however, crime has gotten out of control. Crime rings have bribed and coerced government officials to look the other way in major crime instances. Mexico believes in routing out corrupt officials and cleansing the political scene.
The UN has attempted to control drug organizations to preserve free elections. Mexico recognizes the aid that the UN has given to multiple impoverished countries to support democracy in hostile environments. Mexico is ready to aid in the protection of small democratic countries as long as the UN is willing to aid in the end of cartels. Mexico is willing to aid in any efforts that are good and supportive to smaller countries as long as the action performed still allows the countries’ independence. Mexico recognizes the need to prevent crime from taking place but due to our history of being controlled by bigger countries, we must preserve developing nations’ need for independence from controlling and powerful countries.
