The European Union congratulates Claudia Sheinbaum on her historic election as the first female president of Mexico and commends the Mexican people for their strong attachment to democracy demonstrated throughout the campaign for the general elections and on election day. 

The EU wants to further strengthen its strategic partnership with Mexico, built on common interests in many areas, and on a shared commitment to democracy, human rights and the rules-based multilateral global order. 

The EU looks forward to working with the newly elected authorities to deepen collaboration for the benefit of our citizens in all areas of mutual interest, such as economic relations, the green transition, social inclusion, security and the digital agenda.
