In six years, Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) aimed to transform Mexico by addressing inequality, corruption, and violence, promising a 'Fourth Transformation' on par with historical revolutions.

While AMLO's approval ratings remain high at 65%, his administration has fallen short of its aims.

Key policies included minimum wage hikes and direct cash transfers under the slogan 'First, the poor,' resonating with voters and ensuring his party, Morena, retains popularity.

Infrastructure projects like the Mayan Train have also endeared him to poorer regions despite their environmental cost.

Major issues such as corruption, impunity, and high homicide rates persist.

Despite promises to reduce military involvement, it has increased its role in various civil sectors, raising concerns over democratic regression.
