go to original October 9, 2015

Mexicans are notoriously suspicious of their politicians and think most of them, including former presidents, are corrupt. However, ask some and most won’t say this is true about Vicente Fox.

Fox, very popular throughout his term from 2000 to 2006, was in fact the first president from a party other than the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), which was mired in corruption after 71 years of uninterrupted rule.

Epoch Times spoke to Fox about the country’s economic competitiveness, the mission and value of the Centro Fox, and how Mexico can solve its violent drug problem.
