“I will govern for all. … I will place my knowledge, my strength, my history, and my very life at the service of the people and the country. I am certain that together we will consolidate a Mexico that is more prosperous, free, democratic, sovereign, and just. … I will not let you down.… I call on you to continue making history,” Sheinbaum said.

“… [T]he second stage begins, the second floor of the Fourth Transformation of Mexico’s public life…. [A]fter 200 years of the Republic and 300 years of the Colony—because prior to that we have no clear records, that is, after at least 503 years—for the first time, we women have arrived to lead the destinies of our beautiful nation.… [F]or the good of Mexico, for everyone, we will continue with Mexican Humanism, with the Fourth Transformation. … [W]e know that women participated in the great feats of Mexico’s history from different fronts. We also know that women can be Presidents. With that, I respectfully invite everyone to say Presidenta with an ‘a’ at the end, just like abogada [lawyer], científica [scientist], soldada [soldier], bombera [firefighter], doctora [doctor], maestra [teacher], ingeniera [engineer] with an ‘A,’ because as we have been taught, only what is named exists. … [I]t is time for transformation, and it is time for women.…”

“In our government we will guarantee … freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, freedom of mobilization.… Human rights will be respected, and we will never use the force of the State to repress the people…. Our foreign policy will follow the constitutional principles of self-determination of peoples, non-intervention and the peaceful settlement of disputes.”
