This year, former Mexican President Vicente Fox participated in a virtual interview with Berenice Garcia, a reporter from The Texas Tribune focused on the Rio Grande Valley, as he was unable to attend the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin.
During their discussion, Fox shared his insights on the evolving relationship between Mexico and the United States, reflecting on both historical and contemporary issues. He highlighted his collaboration with former President George W. Bush, particularly regarding a tentative bilateral agreement aimed at reforming immigration policies and programs. However, this initiative was ultimately shelved in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
This conversation took place on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, as part of the Texas Tribune Festival.
