USMCA Experts
Duncan Wood
Director, Mexico Institute
There is no other bilateral relationship in the world that touches the lives of Americans on a day-to-day basis more than that of the U.S. & Mexico.

While the election has now received some much-needed closure, Ghani’s victory by such a small margin based on very low turnout is problematic. A leader with many rivals will be taking over with a small mandate, and that could undermine his legitimacy at a moment when he could soon be expected to put together a negotiating team and lead peace talks with the Taliban. I fear that his narrow victory could exacerbate Afghanistan’s political divides and complicate efforts to establish and sustain an intra-Afghan dialogue with the Taliban.
