The recent news warned of Mexico City's impending water crisis, while the government supported Pemex, its debt-ridden oil company, with significant capital injections and tax breaks. This reflects President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's distorted priorities, favoring Pemex at the expense of water availability. The growing shortages affecting the country, including its capital, highlight the need for a shift in strategic priorities. As the upcoming elections approach, the incoming leader will face the crucial task of rebalancing these priorities to address pressing issues.
