Mexico City /
President Claudia Sheinbaum reported that in the meeting between Foreign Minister Juan Ramón de la Fuente and the United States ambassador to Mexico, Ken Salazar new guidelines were established for the relationship of the US diplomat with Mexican officials.
“A series of guidelines were established, let’s say, general, because sometimes the ambassador usually calls a secretary, another secretary, another secretary, so now we told them ‘if you want to touch on any issue related to the Ministry of Energy because there are businessmen Americans interested in investing and want to know the availability, well through the Foreign Ministry,’” he explained in his morning conference, with which he responded to the question about whether the “pause” that the then president Andrés Manuel López Obrador had decreed with Salazar it had already concluded.
In the morning conference from the National Palacethe president said that these new guidelines dictated to the United States ambassador “they order the relationship in an important way.”
He announced that De la Fuente will later meet with the Canadian ambassador to Mexico, Graeme C. Clark.
Sheinbaum affirmed that Mexico has good relations with all countries in the world, except with Ecuador and Peru.
“It will always be like this and, furthermore, our demonstration will always be in favor of peace and non-intervention and the self-determination of the people, of course, Ecuador is something else, what happened in Ecuador or even Peru,” he said.
Sheinbaum took the opportunity to criticize the vote of the PAN bench in the Senate against the ratification of Juan Ramón de la Fuente as Secretary of Foreign Affairs of the new government.
“In the Senate, the PAN voted against Juan Ramón, who is a nationally and internationally recognized man, prepared, with probity, has honorary doctorates in many universities, our ambassador to the United Nations, is a first-class man, and The argument was that they do not want the president’s government to do well, just so that we can also see the levels of the debate,” he expressed.
