How to automatically remove space before punctuation

For example: “This is some text . This is some text”

should be

“This is some text. This is some text”

We can use replase but replacing ‘ .’ with ‘.’, but it’s not a good approach. Please let me know if you have any other idea which is generalised for any punctuation.

Sorry I’m on mobile but it would be something like this:

import re
print(re.sub(r's(?=[.,:;])', "", yourstring))
