Mexican President Felipe Calderon has replaced the top official in the struggle against drug cartels. Arturo Chavez Chavez, a former deputy interior minister, will take over for Eduardo Medina Mora as new attorney general.
“There was a general disappointment with the performance of Medina Mora,” said one analyst. “It was the military and the public security ministry that were tracking down the cartel capos and the attorney general’s office was lagging behind.”
Calderon also named Juan Jose Suarez Coppel as chief executive officer of Pemex and Francisco Javier Mayorga as the new agriculture minister.
