“President López Obrador thanked Prime Minister Briceño for the spirit of collaboration and friendship that has characterized the relationship between both countries over the years, and ratified Mexico’s interest in maintaining the work, together with Belize, in the construction of a prosperous and secure future for the two nations and their communities,” a statement from the Government of Mexico said.
