From the article:
> Since taking power in 2018, López Obrador has fought to reverse resource reforms under previous governments which opened up the oil and electricity sectors to private investment. He has pushed a model of development that gives primacy to resource exploitation by state-controlled companies.
This would appear to be anti-capitalist by definition.
- dimensionc132 5y agoPrivate investment by national companies is very different to private investment by foreign hostile companies. A Chinese company (and by default, Chinese gov) controlling the majority of Mexico's Lithium deposits is insane, no matter how people try to spin that, as populist or anti-capitalist. A country has the right to control the resources in its territories.
