Mexico, EU agree to boost tourism cooperation
MEXICO CITY, April 21 (Xinhua) -- Mexico and the European Union (EU) have agreed to promote cooperation in tourism, the Mexican ministry of tourism said Sunday.
"Europe represents a key market for the growth of tourism in Mexico," Tourism Minister Claudia Ruiz Massieu was quoted in a press release as saying at a meeting Saturday with EU consuls based in Mexico.
The Mexican government is working to "consolidate a larger international presence" with increased trade and investment flows, and "tourism is a priority due to its great capacity to spur economic development," the minister said.
In January 2012, Mexico's tourism ministry and the European Commission signed a joint declaration to strengthen tourism cooperation between the two sides.
