Throughout World War II, Mexico and the U.S. formed an association that resulted in a much more pleasant interaction between the two nations. The country has an embassy in Washington, D.C., and the United States has one in the country’s capital. It backed American Cold War objectives and did not oppose American action in Guatemala which led to the overthrow of communist leader Jacobo Arbenz.
