Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador pushed backed on Thursday against ...
The Canadian ambassador to Mexico, Pierre Alarie, wrote on Twitter on Wednesday that the Mexican government appears “not to wish to respect natural gas pipeline contracts,” and said he was deeply concerned about the signal being sent.
“Here it was stated that those contracts were abusive. I called them unfair contracts because they were handed over with all the benefits for the companies,” he said, arguing that their terms would lead to the ruin of the CFE. The row has revived concerns that Lopez Obrador’s government could put in jeopardy contracts signed under previous administrations, the last six of which the president has characterized as part of a corrupt “neo-liberal” era.
IEnova, a unit of U.S.-based Sempra Energy, says the CFE is seeking arbitration over a contract it signed in partnership with TC Energy to build a $2.5 billion pipeline from Texas to the Mexican Gulf coast port of Tuxpan.
