The ECLAC official stressed that the first meeting between the two presidents was in China and it marked the first time that a Mexican president met with his Chinese counterpart before meeting with his U.S. counterpart, Barack Obama, who visited Mexico in May.
"That points to a historical change that we should consider closely," said Rosales.
Rosales hailed Xi's efforts to strengthen trade and investment with Mexico and to create Chinese-Mexican business alliances.
He said that the Chinese president's tour of the region opened a new chapter in the relations between the two sides and their ties were experiencing fast growth.
