In a major cabinet shakeup in Mexico, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Thursday tapped a friend, the governor of his home state of Tabasco, Adan Lopez, as interior minister, replacing the outgoing Olga Sanchez.
Sanchez, who was the first woman to occupy the role, will return to her prior post as a lawmaker in the Senate, which she left after Lopez Obrador took office in 2018.
Mexico's interior portfolio is an especially powerful cabinet post, one of several ministers responsible for security matters as well as next in line to the presidency. "From the Senate of the republic, Mr. President, I will continue from the legislative field, consolidating this national project, this great transformation of public life in Mexico," said Sanchez, echoing the president's oft-repeated description of his agenda.
