On Friday 12 June, the 7th EU-Mexico Summit took place in Brussels. The EU was represented by the President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, and the President of the European Council, Donald Tusk. President Enrique Peña Nieto represented Mexico. This was the first EU-Mexico Summit for all three leaders. President Juncker said: “We are working hard in order to be able to conclude an agreement on the Passenger Name Record between Mexico and the EU which is of highest importance for Mexico”.
The EU-Mexico Summit prepared the ground for a modernisation of the EU-Mexico Global Agreement, reaffirmed the like-mindedness on bilateral, regional and multilateral issues, and therefore improved the relationship between the EU and Mexico across the board. Global issues such as climate change, the post-2015 sustainable development agenda and the challenges related to drug trafficking were also discussed.
