A 21-year-old Spanish young woman was assassinated last Saturday in Cuautla, a city located about 100 kilometers from Mexico City. The crime occurred during what appears to have been an academic exchange.
The victim was identified as Claudia Tacoronte, a student at the University of Granada in Spain. Claudia was carrying out an exchange program in Mexico, attending the Autonomous University of the State of Morelos.
This assassination occurs in a context of violence that frequently affects foreign students in various parts of the world, raising questions about the safety of international academic exchange programs.
