The Mexico - Vietnam Parliamentary Friendship Group made its debut at a ceremony jointly held on September 24 by the Vietnamese Embassy in Mexico and the Mexican Chamber of Deputies.
The event was attended by numerous lawmakers from major political parties of Mexico, Vietnam's Ambassador to Mexico Nguyen Van Hai, and Quan Minh Cuong, Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Head of the delegation of National Assembly deputies of Cao Bang province, who is leading a delegation of the Communist Party of Vietnam on a visit to Mexico.
Held at the Chamber of Deputies, the ceremony took place at a time when the two countries are celebrating the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations (1975 – 2025), highlighting the growing role of parliamentary diplomacy in strengthening political trust and promoting cooperation across multiple fields.
Speaking at the event, Chair of the Mexican Chamber of Deputies’ Welfare Committee Ana Karina Rojo Pimentel, who is Chair of the Mexico–Vietnam Parliamentary Friendship Group, stressed that the friendship between the Mexican and Vietnamese people stems from shared histories of struggle for independence and a commitment to peace. She noted that this bond was formalised in 1975 when Mexico became one of the first Latin American countries to recognise a unified Vietnam.
Ana Karina emphasised that the establishment of the Mexico–Vietnam Parliamentary Friendship Group is vital to enhancing parliamentary, economic, cultural, and educational cooperation, bringing bilateral relations into practical effect and delivering tangible benefits to both nations' people.
In his remarks, Hai highlighted that Vietnam–Mexico relations are built not only on traditional friendship but also on mutual benefit, complementing each other in economic and trade cooperation. He noted that the two countries have increasingly leveraged their economic complementarities within the framework of free trade agreements, particularly the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
The Ambassador expressed his confidence that the Mexico–Vietnam Parliamentary Friendship Group would serve as a bridge to promote parliamentary exchanges, share legislative experience, and support businesses from both countries in exploring new opportunities.
It's time for Vietnam and Mexico to upgrade their relations to a Comprehensive Partnership, with the long-term goal of establishing a Strategic Partnership, to generate broader and more substantial benefits across politics, economy, culture, security, and for the peoples of both nations, Vietnamese Ambassador to Mexico Nguyen Van Hai has affirmed.
It is time for Vietnam and Mexico to consider lifting their bilateral relations to a new height to create a new framework and space for development, Vietnamese Ambassador to Mexico Nguyen Van Hai said at a ceremony celebrating the 50th anniversary of diplomatic ties between the two countries (May 19, 1975 – 2025).
