| description | This article analyzes the resources and capabilities of Mexico’s foreign policy during the administration of President Enrique Peña Nieto (2012-2018), in particular, the budget approved and exercised by the SRE, as well as its annual growth rate and the resources allocated to strategic issues. It also studies the powers of coordination of the SRE and the distribution of Mexico’s actions on the international stage. It also analyzes the evolution of diplomatic personnel and of the Mexican Foreign Service and, finally, examines foreign policy capabilities in two fundamental areas: consular assistance and resources devoted to international cooperation, and commercial, cultural and image promotion. The article concludes that there was a significant disinvestment of foreign policy resources and capacities during this administration: the budget fell by 13% in real dollar terms and decreased as a percentage of the total federal budget; coordination with the international actions of other ministries and public entities by the foreign ministry was very limited; Mexico’s presence in the world remained relatively unchanged and failed to reflect the importance of the country at the global level; there was a significant decrease in administrative personnel in the foreign ministry; consular resources were limited and, to a large extent, provided exceptionally by other ministries; finally, international cooperation, promotion and public diplomacy were only provided with limited resources for implementation in the second half of the government. |

Este artículo analiza los recursos y capacidades de la política exterior de México durante la administración del presidente Enrique Peña Nieto (2012-2018), en particular, el presupuesto aprobado y ejercido por la SRE, así como su tasa de crecimiento anual y los recursos destinados a temas estratégicos. También estudia los poderes de coordinación de la SRE y la dispersión de la acción internacional de México. Asimismo, analiza la evolución del personal diplomático y del Servicio Exterior Mexicano y, finalmente, examina las capacidades de política exterior en dos áreas fundamentales: la atención consular y los recursos dedicados a la cooperación internacional, la promoción comercial, cultural y de imagen. El artículo concluye que hubo una importante desinversión de recursos y capacidades en política exterior durante esta administración: el presupuesto se redujo 13% en términos reales en dólares y bajó como porcentaje del presupuesto federal total; la coordinación de la acción internacional de otras secretarías y entidades públicas por parte de la cancillería fue muy limitada; la presencia de México en el mundo se mantuvo relativamente constante y no refleja la importancia del país a nivel global; hubo una significativa disminución del personal administrativo en la cancillería; los recursos consulares fueron limitados y, en gran medida, provistos de modo excepcional por otras secretarías; finalmente, la cooperación internacional, la promoción y la diplomacia pública contaron con magros recursos para su ejecución en la segunda mitad del gobierno.
