Mexico rejoined the G77+China alliance, a move announced by Cuba at the conclusion of a recent global summit, with unanimous support from all participating countries.
In 1994, Mexico exited the group to become part of the OECD. Rodolfo Benitez revealed that upcoming talks will sort out the specifics of Mexico’s comeback.
Foreign Minister Alicia Bárcena spoke at the meeting’s inauguration. She emphasized Mexico’s ambition to contribute to a better global landscape.
She advocates increased cooperation among Southern nations to confront urgent matters like climate shifts and societal inequities.
Bárcena also urged enhanced worldwide collaboration in the scientific and educational fields.
The gathering included international figures such as Brazil’s Lula da Silva, Colombia’s Gustavo Petro, Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro, and UN Secretary António Guterres.
The G77+China forum consists of 134 member nations, mainly hailing from Latin America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
Until now, Mexico was the sole Latin American nation absent from the alliance.
