How does Russia’s invasion of Ukraine affect Mexico?
Mexico’s economy will be affected.
The conflict in Ukraine would inevitably hit hydrocarbon prices more strongly in international markets, causing more inflation globally and increasing the possibility of more aggressive hikes in interest rates across the board.
Since Mexico imports gasoline from the United States in the way it has been doing. Previously, Mexico had already spoken out about the situation in Ukraine.
There is also the problem of gas supply that would slow down industrial activity in the Euro Zone, which would probably cause the economy to fall again and since the GDP of the European Union represents a fifth of world GDP, it would be very likely that a fall repercussions globally, including Mexico.
In short it is cthus impossible to avoid an impact on the Mexican currency and in general on financial variables in Mexico.
For the moment, the Mexican Foreign Ministry, through Marcelo Ebrard, has reported that the Mexican ambassadors in Ukraine are safe, so that during the day it will be known the financial effects that will fall on the country due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
