T.Sh | DOP - 5 June, 2023

In a tweet posted on Thursday, the Spanish-language Twitter account for Palestine, “Palestina Hoy,” announced that the Palestinian delegation in Mexico City will now be upgraded from a “Special Delegation” to a full embassy.

According to the statement, “This measure is undertaken in the spirit of cooperation and friendship between the two countries, which is evidenced in the continuous development of bilateral relations in the bilateral and multilateral sphere, since its establishment in 1975.”

The document continued, “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates expresses its firm conviction that this measure will significantly contribute to the continued development and strengthening of relations between the United Mexican States and the State of Palestine, on the basis of mutual respect and recognition and for the benefit of the two peoples, as well as contributing to international security and development.”

A resolution was passed by the Mexican Senate last November, on the anniversary of the Palestinian declaration of independence on November 15, 1985, recognizing Palestine as an independent state.
