Foreign Secretary Luis Videgaray met today with Luis Alberto Moreno, president of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). At the meeting, he reaffirmed that President Enrique Peña Nieto’s administration was committed to promoting actions to support development in Latin America.
Specifically, the two officials followed up on the work and initiatives resulting from the Conference on Prosperity and Security in Central America that was held last June in Miami to promote development in the Northern Triangle countries, which include Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.
Foreign Secretary Videgaray and IDB President Moreno agreed that only by working together will it be possible to overcome the region’s challenges in order to promote sustainable and inclusive development that includes productive investment, entrepreneurship and better living conditions for its citizens.
The meeting was also attended by the Mexican ambassador to the United States, Gerónimo Gutiérrez Fernández; the manager of the IDB’s Central American and Dominican Republic departments, Gina Montiel; and the Executive Director for Mexico and the Dominican Republic at the IDB, Juan Bosco Martí.
