2018年，墨西哥国家复兴运动党在总统、议会和州选举中全面获胜，该党候选人奥夫拉多尔宣誓就任新一届总统；经济增速较上年略有增长，并高于地区平均增速，但增长后劲乏力；暴力犯罪、腐败、贫困和减少不平等等社会问题依然是政府治理的难点与重点；墨西哥与美国、加拿大正式签署新的贸易协议；墨西哥是首个批准《全面与进步跨太平洋伙伴关系协定》的成员国，包含11国的该协定已生效。
In 2018，Andrés Manuel López Obrador （AMLO） of the leftist Movimiento Regeneración Nacional （Morena） won not only the presidential election but also the election of both the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate with his coalition. It was estimated that Mexican economic growth was higher than that of previous year，and performed better in the region compared with other countries，but still lack of sustained growth. To crackdown crimes，combat corruption and poverty，and reduce inequality are the tough priorities of Mr. López Obrador’s government. Mexico signed the USMCA with the US and Canada in the year and was the first member country of CPTPP that ratified the agreement.
