Mexican President-elect declines Zelenskiy's invitation to visit Ukraine

Mexican President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum said she intends to adhere to a policy of non-interference in foreign affairs, continuing the course of her predecessor, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

This is reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to Fuser News.

Sheinbaum declined an invitation from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to visit Kyiv after taking office on October 1.

“Our responsibility is here. We will attend some international events that we consider important, but we will not travel much. Our responsibility is here,” Sheinbaum said, emphasizing that the main task of her administration will be to address domestic issues.

Sheinbaum also reaffirmed Mexico's commitment to maintaining diplomatic relations with all countries, with the exception of Ecuador, where an incident with the Mexican embassy took place in April, which Sheinbaum called a “violation of sovereignty.”
