Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with Mexican Foreign Secretary Juan Ramón de la Fuente today, May 30, 2025, to drive further progress on shared security priorities. The conversation aimed to strengthen cooperation between the two countries on issues such as securing the U.S.-Mexico border, dismantling cartel organizations, and promoting economic security in North America.
The Secretary of State and Mexican Foreign Secretary agreed that intensifying bilateral engagement was crucial for improving the safety and welfare of Americans and Mexicans alike. This renewed commitment underscores the importance of cooperation between the two nations on pressing issues.
Rubio's call with de la Fuente marks an effort to bolster ties between the United States and Mexico, a key partner in addressing regional challenges. The U.S. government has long prioritized fostering strong relationships with its neighbors, recognizing that shared security and economic goals are essential for promoting stability and prosperity in North America.
The Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, which oversees relations with Mexico, will continue to work closely with the Mexican government to advance these shared interests.

By working together, the United States and Mexico can build a more secure and prosperous future for both their citizens and the broader region.
