Mexico's President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Wednesday again declined to congratulate Joe Biden for winning the US presidential election, reiterating that once the process is finished in the United states he will make a pronouncement.

Lopez Obrador added he has nothing against any candidate or political party in the US electoral process but prefers not to offer his congratulations until it is concluded.

"What's the best thing? To wait," he said.
