After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor Bay on december 7, 1941, Mexico had to face one of its most complex foreign policy decisions. Japan now became enemy. In may 1942, the administration of Manuel Avila Camacho declared a “state of war” to the Axis powers as a result of the sinking of ships Potrero del Llano and Faja de Oro.
In this context, the Mexican government implemented various policies for the confiscation of financial funds and property of the citizens of “enemy countries”. These actions led to a battle over which politicians, officials and businessmen who had close contacts with Japanese interests in Mexico, where political pressures and influence trafficking was a constant. This clearly exemplified in the case of the mine “La Azul”, located in Taxco, Guerrero.
