Sheinbaum highlighted the economic, labor, tourism, health and cultural advances achieved in the Mexican capital, but also the investments in education and social programs focused on the poorest inhabitants.
He also highlighted advances in security, such as the reduction of high-impact crimes by 58% and intentional homicides by 51%.
