Overview

  • Foreign Minister Juan Ramón de la Fuente, representing President Claudia Sheinbaum at UNGA and a G20 ministers’ meeting, announced the ONU 80 coalition with Indonesia, Jordan, Kenya, Norway, New Zealand, Senegal and Singapore.
  • Mexico demanded the elimination of the Security Council veto and the revitalization of both the Council and the General Assembly to make global governance more inclusive and effective.
  • De la Fuente outlined three premises for global policy: an economía moral del bienestar, peacebuilding from the bottom up, and a firm return to international law and human rights.
  • The government categorically rejected the criminalization of migrants and pledged attention and consular protection for Mexicans abroad.
  • Mexico urged an immediate end to the Cuba embargo and its removal from terrorism lists, called to halt the wars in Gaza and Ukraine, and promoted selecting a Latin American woman as the next UN Secretary‑General.
