Mexican president says too soon to congratulate Biden
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador says that it is too soon to congratulate Joe Biden and he would wait for “all legal issues” in the US presidential election to be resolved.
“We don’t want to be imprudent. We don’t want to act lightly and we want to respect people’s self-determination and rights,” Lopez Obrador tells reporters.
“We have a very good relationship with the two candidates,” he adds.
“President Trump has been very respectful with us and we have reached very good agreements, and we thank him because he has not interfered and has respected us,” says the left-wing populist.
And “the same” goes for Biden, Lopez Obrador adds.
