Great economic vitality<\/STRONG><\/P> Italy and Mexico already enjoy great vitality in economic relations, with trade up by 32% last year to $6.5 billion, Terzi explained, adding that an Italo-Mexican business council had been active since the start of this year that involves large-scale firms along with small to midsized ones. Espinosa encouraged Italian businesses to invest in Mexico, underscoring that her country was safe and that there was \u201cstill lots of room\u201d in the automotive, space, food production, infrastructure and tourism sectors.<\/P> Growth in a context of sustainable social and environmental development<\/STRONG><\/P> Moreover, Italy and Mexico agree on the need to adopt growth policies to counter the global economic crisis, starting with the next meeting of the G20 on 18 June in the Mexican city of Los Cabos. Tersi referred to fostering growth \u201cwithin a context of sustainable social and environmental development\u201d. Espinosa explained that the G20 would have to send \u201ca clear message that, in addition to structural reforms, there are going to have to be growth policies that create jobs\u201d. On the policy front, Terzi added, Italy and Mexico are \u201ccollaborating in all multilateral forums\u201d and agreed, for example, on UN Security Council reforms based on greater representativeness.<\/P> As regards security, Espinosa pointed out that \u201cmany advances\u201d had been made in recent years in collaboration against crime through police and judicial collaboration agreements. On this front, she added that what was needed \u201cis greater cooperation\u201d, because, \u201corganized crime is transnational\u201d. Terzi said he was \u201cvery confident\u201d about the \u201cincreasingly sophisticated\u201d approach to cooperation and intelligence exchanges.<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cStrengthening integration with Mexico at all levels\u201d is the goal of an agreement signed today by Minister Giulio Terzi and his Mexican counterpart Patricia Espinosa, aimed at boosting bilateral cooperation in political, security, economic and cultural contexts.
