Can you help me with my python regex expression?

I'm new in Python, so i have this string:

info1= "Jose Maria Almeida;00351 962341234;1997-12-19"

I'm trying to get the regex expression to that string and i got this:

('[a-zA-Z]+[ ]*([a-zA-Z^;]+);(^00351\s9\d{8}[^;]+$);(\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2})+')

But when i check if it's valid, it says that it is not.

Could someone help me please?

How about this one?

[a-zA-z]+.*;[0-9]+ [0-9]+;[0-9]+-[0-9]+-[0-9]+

Correct answer:
pattern = re.compile(r"^(?P^([A-Za-z]+\s)+[A-Za-z]+);(?P[0-9]+\s[0-9]+);(?P[0-9]{4})-(?P[0-9]{1,2})-(?P[0-9]{1,2}$)")
