Camille Chamoun vs Enrique Pena Nieto

Camille Chamoun was elected President of Lebanon on September 23, 1952, succeeding Bechara El Khoury. His election marked a shift in Lebanese politics, and he served a six-year term until 1958.

President Chamoun faced a major political crisis when Muslim factions rebelled against his pro-Western policies and alleged attempts to amend the constitution for a second term. The U.S. intervened by landing Marines in Beirut to stabilize the government.

Chamoun refused to resign despite widespread opposition and the formation of a rebel government in Tripoli. He remained in power until the end of his term in September 1958, when he handed over to Fuad Chehab.

After leaving the presidency, Chamoun founded the National Liberal Party (NLP) in 1958. The party became a major political force representing Maronite Christian interests and played a role in the Lebanese Civil War.

Chamoun's National Liberal Party and its militia, the Tigers, fought in the Lebanese Civil War as part of the Christian Lebanese Front. He opposed the Taif Agreement and remained a polarizing figure until his death in 1987.

Enrique Peña Nieto won the presidential election, returning the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) to power after 12 years in opposition. His victory was seen as a restoration of the old guard, despite promises of reform.

Peña Nieto brokered the Pact for Mexico, a cross-party agreement to pass structural reforms. The pact enabled major legislation on energy, education, and telecommunications, but later collapsed amid corruption scandals.

Peña Nieto pushed through a constitutional reform ending Pemex's monopoly, allowing private and foreign companies to explore and produce oil and gas. This was a historic shift in Mexico's energy policy, aimed at boosting production.
