Areas of cooperation between two countries

• Non-permanent members of the security council: Both countries are non-permanent members of the United Nations Security Council this year.
• At both forums, India and Mexico will contribute decisively to world peace and security, and will put poverty reduction at the centre of the multilateral debate.
• The health sector is another cornerstone of our exchanges.
• Mexico will strengthen its cooperation with India as one of the leading global producers of medicines and will also seek joint pharmaceutical manufacturing.
• Another key focus area of cooperation will be aerospace.
• Although it was started less than a decade ago, this has enormous potential for the Mexican Space Agency and for regional initiatives such as the recently established Latin American and Caribbean Space Agency (ALCE) of which Mexico is the founder.
• In the economic sphere, Mexico's links with India, the sixth-largest economy in the world and our tenth-largest trading partner, undoubtedly offers a wide range of prospects for Mexico's productive sectors.

In this spirit, we will take a firm step towards a tangible alliance to showcase this evolution, which could result in mutual benefits.
