DHAKA, Feb 12, 2025 (BSS) – Bangladesh Ambassador to Mexico M. Mushfiqul Fazal 
(Ansarey) has stressed the importance of accelerating the process of opening a Mexican Embassy in Dhaka to enhance diplomatic ties and promote business, cultural exchange, and people-to-people connectivity. 

He made the urge when he met with Mexican foreign ministry’s Director General (Asia-Pacific) 
Fernando Gonzalez Saiffe in Mexico City on Tuesday, according to a message received here 
today. 

During the meeting, Ambassador Mushfique briefed the Director General on recent 
developments in Bangladesh, emphasizing that the Interim Government is committed to 
implementing necessary reforms aimed at ensuring a free, fair, and credible election. 

He underscored the potential for strengthening economic ties, particularly by expanding 
Bangladeshi exports to Mexico, including RMG, pharmaceuticals and leather goods.

Saiffe praised the Ambassador’s proactive approach and recalled his visit to Bangladesh during 
the Foreign Office Consultations two years ago. 

He fondly reflected on his interactions with key stakeholders, including the Federation of 
Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI).

To commemorate the upcoming 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Bangladesh 
and Mexico, Mushfique  proposed a series of joint celebratory events. 

Both sides expressed their commitment to deepening bilateral ties and agreed to expedite the 
finalization of several pending agreements to further strengthen cooperation.
