Felipe Calderón
Felipe Calderón served as the President of Mexico from 2006 to 2012. His presidency was marked by a controversial military-led strategy against drug cartels, which aimed to combat increasing violence and organized crime. While Calderón's approach was intended to restore security, it is often criticized for exacerbating the violence and leading to significant civilian casualties. His administration's focus on the drug war has had lasting implications for Mexico's political landscape and public safety.
