laht.comMEXICO CITY – Kazakh Foreign Minister Erlan Idrissov began on Thursday the official portion of his visit to Mexico by meeting with Economy Secretary Ildefonso Guajardo and former President Vicente Fox.
Idrissov, the first Kazakh senior official to visit Mexico, had a private breakfast with Fox at a Mexico City hotel, but no reports have been forthcoming about the content of their meeting.
He subsequently spoke with Guajardo and the director-general of the investment and trade promotion agency ProMexico, Francisco Gonzalez Diaz.
Later the Kazakh minister attended the inauguration of the Economic Roundtable: Presentation of Opportunities for Investment in Kazakhstan, with officials and business executives of the two countries.
Idrissov and his delegation then visited the area set aside for installation of the Kazakh Embassy in the Mexican capital.
The two countries agreed early this year to open diplomatic missions in their respective capitals.
Thursday afternoon, Idrissov will deliver a speech at the Mexican Foreign Secretariat on the theme of “Kazakhstan in the Modern World.”
He will then meet with Mexican counterpart Jose Antonio Meade and the two men are to hold a joint press conference ahead of a dinner in Idrissov’s honor.
The Kazakh official plans to meet Friday with Mexican lawmakers.
His schedule for Saturday includes a closed-door session with Mexican business leaders before he leaves for New York, where he will represent Kazakhstan at the opening of the UN General Assembly.
