Mexico Invites Putin to Presidential Inauguration

Mexico has extended an invitation to Russian President Vladimir Putin for the Oct. 1 inauguration of its newly elected President, Claudia Sheinbaum. The decision on Putin's attendance, or the appointment of another high-ranking official, is yet to be determined by the Kremlin.

Mexico has formally invited Russian President Vladimir Putin to the Oct. 1 inauguration ceremony of the country's newly elected President, Claudia Sheinbaum. The news was reported by Russia's Izvestia newspaper, which cited Mexico's embassy in Russia as the source.

According to a representative from the Mexican embassy, the invitation to partake in President Sheinbaum's inauguration has already been sent to President Putin. This invitation marks a significant diplomatic gesture between the two nations.

The Kremlin will now decide whether President Putin will personally attend the ceremony or if he will designate another high-ranking official to represent him at the event.
