Mexico-Poland relations
Diplomatic relations between the two countries were established in 1928. In 1930, Mexico and Poland signed a Treaty of Friendship, Commerce, and Navigation.
According to this, Mexico soon opened its first diplomatic legation in Warsaw. Mexico has an embassy in Warsaw, and Poland has an embassy in Mexico City.
Both countries share similar values and positions on many issues, such as strengthening democracy and respecting international law.
This convergence of states facilitates cooperation in international fora such as the UN and the WTO. Mexico was one of the first Latin American countries to support Poland’s candidacy as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council.
Visits by heads of state and government are significant in the history of bilateral relations. In 2017, both nations commemorated the opening of a Polish Investment and Trade Agency office. Both nations celebrated the 90th anniversary of diplomatic relations in 2018.
Mexico is Poland’s third most significant Latin American supplier and the region’s most important Polish export market.
