Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel today extended his condolences for the death of Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas, a reference of the Mexican left.

On his X account, the Cuban leader highlighted that the politician, who died the day before at the age of 92, was an intimate friend of Cuba and always defended the noblest causes of Latin America and the Caribbean.

"Our solidarity with the Mexican government and people in the face of such a sensitive loss," he wrote.

Cárdenas was a three-time presidential candidate, the first elected mayor of Mexico City, and founded the Party of the Democratic Revolution alongside former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
