On July 29, 2010, Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi held talks with his Mexican counterpart Patricia Espinosa in Mexico City.

During the talks, the two sides highly spoke of the sound growth of the China-Mexico strategic partnership, and agreed that strengthening bilateral strategic cooperation will significantly contribute to the common development of both countries. Meanwhile, as both China and Mexico are major emerging and developing countries and key members of multilateral international organizations, stronger strategic cooperation between them is also of great significance to multi-polarization and democracy of international relations, they stressed. In order to deepen their strategic cooperation, the two sides agreed to continue conducting high-level exchanges and enhancing political mutual trust, and to further improve the mechanism of the China-Mexico Permanent Bi-national Commission to better plan for and facilitate their cooperation in various fields. Meanwhile, the two top diplomats underscored the need to further expand mutual investment and broaden cooperation on trade, agriculture and infrastructure construction. Both sides also agreed to expand humanities exchanges and push forward cooperation on tourism and education. The two countries should also consolidate communication and coordination under multilateral frameworks, such as the United Nations and the Group of 20 major economies, so as to create a stronger voice for and defend the common interests of developing countries, they said. China supports Mexico in hosting a climate change summit later this year in Cancun, said Yang, urging both sides to coordinate closely to help achieve sound progress at the conference in line with the principle of "common but differentiated responsibilities." The two sides are also committed to promoting the dialogues and cooperation between China and Latin American countries, said the two foreign ministers.

Yang and Espinosa jointly presided over the opening ceremony of the fourth meeting of the Mexico-China Permanent Bi-national Commission, a high-level mechanism for the two countries to discuss their cooperation in various fields. Relevant departments of the two countries held counterpart meetings of the four sub-commissions for politics, economy and trade, science and technology, culture and education and of the four working groups for transportation, agriculture, social development and tourism respectively.
