Claudia Ruiz-Massieu, Foreign Minister of Mexico
Doris Meissner, MPI Senior Fellow & Director U.S. Immigration Policy Program
This MPI Leadership Visions discussion with the Foreign Minister of Mexico, Claudia Ruiz-Massieu, marked her first public appearance in Washington, DC in her current capacity. With the growing importance of migration matters tying the United States and Mexico together, this Leadership Visions program moderated by MPI Senior Fellow Doris Meissner offers a special opportunity to hear from and engage with a critical figure in the U.S.-Mexico relationship. Minister Ruiz-Massieu was appointed to her post by President Enrique Peña Nieto on August 27, 2015, having previously served as Minister of Tourism since 2012. Prior to joining the Peña Nieto administration, she served two terms as an elected member of Mexico's House of Representatives. Minister Ruiz-Massieu has also had a distinguished academic career.
