Mexico recognizes Palestine, and Israel describes it as an act that supports terrorism.
On September 22, 2025, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum reiterated on social media and in a public message that Mexico recognizes the Palestinian state and joins initiatives to stop what she described as "genocide" in Gaza.
Sheinbaum said: "Stop this genocide in Gaza..."There can't be an attack on the civilian population like the one happening right now."
The Palestinian Embassy in Mexico celebrated Sheinbaum's stance as an "act of truth" and a step toward justice.
In response, the Israeli Embassy in Mexico issued a statement criticizing the unilateral recognition of Palestine. The text states: "Such measures also send a worrying message to terrorist organizations in Gaza, Iran, Yemen, and other parts of the world, which interpret it as a form of support."
