Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum delivered a strong message on sovereignty during the 109th anniversary of the Mexican Constitution, declaring that “Mexico is not for sale” and will never bow to foreign pressure. Speaking in Queretaro, Sheinbaum reaffirmed the country’s commitment to protecting its independence, territorial integrity, and natural resources. She also announced plans to introduce a 40-hour workweek, which will be gradually implemented between 2026 and 2027 following a labour reform proposal. The move aims to improve workers’ rights and working conditions. Her remarks underline Mexico’s national identity, economic priorities, and political stance amid evolving global and regional challenges.
