The ‘important step’ that seals the thaw between Spain and Mexico
Next Thursday’s meeting at the National Palace in Mexico City will put the final seal of approval on the normalization of diplomatic relations between Mexico and Spain. It will be a brief encounter, but one steeped in all the ritual codes of a state visit. In March, Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum invited King Felipe VI to attend Spain’s national team’s first World Cup match on Mexican soil, in the city of Guadalajara. In that context, a second invitation arrived this week, this time for a bilateral meeting.
