Andrés Manuel López Obrador (born 13 November 1953), also known by his initials, AMLO is a Mexican politician who has been serving as the 65th president of Mexico since late 2018. His politics have been described as center-left progressive populist and economic nationalist. He is not a communist, but his policies are a thorn in the side of the imperialist global order.
Presidency
In 2021, he announced that Mexico's strategic minerals such as lithium will be nationalized.[1][2]
In June 2022, he condemned the U.S. blockade on Cuba and called it a "genocide" and "tremendous violation of human rights."[3]
