    Prospectiva para México como país contribuyente de tropas de las Naciones Unidas y su influencia en la seguridad nacional
    (Revista del Centro de Estudios Superiores Navales, 2017) García Urbina, Rafael Eduardo
    Almost 70 years after signing the Letter of the United Nations as one of its 51 initial Member States, Mexico registers again in the list of contributor countries of troops for the missions of this supervisory body of world peace and collective safety; in compliance to the instructions of the President of the Republic and Supreme Commander of the Mexican Armed Forces, generated by the international perseverance, but above all, according to the fifth goal of the current administration called: «A Mexico with Global Responsibility». However, within the last 12 months before this administration finishes and due to the historical inertia of our country for not participating regularly in this type of operations, it is unknown if Mexico will continue with this contribution to world peace or if it will be canceled by the administration of the future head of the Federal Executive Power, who will take the charge on the first day of December of 2018. The cancelation will not have a direct negative effect in National Security; however, the good image in the international level of Mexico as a country with global responsibility would be affected by the failure of compliance of the commitments acquired with the United Nations (UN) and this will add up to the frequent topics of drug trafficking and insecurity that characterize us in the national or foreign, digital and printed media for more than 10 years. I have to highlight that, even if there is already a planned critical path up to year 2020 (see Annex «A») for the contribution of our Blue Berets. At the end of this article, there are recommendations of actions, and participation alternatives are proposed with the goal to improve the trend scenario and to transform this government policy in a State policy fully approved by the Mexican society1, which will cast a good image of Mexico as a contributor country of troops for the United Nations in the international level.
