VTV.vn - Mexican leftist candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador was declared president-elect on Sunday after winning over 50 percent of the votes, according to data from the country's electoral body.

The victory makes him the first leftist president since Mexico began its transition to multiparty democracy more than 30 years ago.

In his victory speeches, López Obrador called on Mexicans to reconcile and said his government would not be a "committee in service to a minority" but would represent all citizens rich and poor, religious or non-believers, migrants, human beings of all manner of thought and all sexual preferences.
