Mexico's foreign minister and the capital city's mayor both resigned Monday to focus on running for president next year, with the ruling leftist party favored to win.
The minister, Marcelo Ebrard, and Mexico City's Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum announced within minutes of each other that they were stepping down as they seek to become the Morena party's candidate to succeed President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador in the June 2024 vote.
