In a recent exclusive with CGTN, Mexican Ambassador to China Jesus Seade described China as a "very good friend" and underscored the growing importance of Mexico-China relations on both strategic and cultural fronts. Drawing from his experience as the founding deputy director-general of the World Trade Organization, Seade laid out a vision for deeper engagement in trade, investment, and policy coordination.
Seade highlighted how bilateral trade and investment flows have expanded in recent years, creating opportunities for entrepreneurs, tech startups, and young professionals in both countries. He emphasized that revitalizing the WTO's role in resolving tariff disputes will be key to sustaining this momentum. "We need a stronger global framework that can address emerging challenges and keep commerce flowing smoothly," Seade noted.
Beyond economics, cultural exchange remains at the heart of the partnership. From student and artistic exchanges to collaboration in digital innovation, Seade sees these people-to-people ties as a powerful bridge. As Mexico and China prepare their next round of diplomatic and business dialogues, the ambassador's insights point to a future where shared values and open collaboration drive mutual growth.
