U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Mexico’s Foreign Secretary Juan Ramón de la Fuente held a telephone call on 2 July 2025, reaffirming that security cooperation remains central to regional stability. Both governments said the discussion focused on combating transnational criminal and terrorist organizations and underscored mutual respect for each nation’s sovereignty. The two officials agreed to create a bilateral working group that will convene in Washington, D.C., in the coming weeks. The group will advance coordination on three priority areas—security, migration and trade—and seek to strengthen economic security and prosperity across North America, according to separate readouts from the State Department and the Mexican Foreign Ministry. No specific date for the Washington meeting has been announced, but the ministries said senior officials from both countries’ security and economic portfolios will participate. The initiative is intended to maintain a structured, permanent dialogue as the neighbors confront shared challenges along their 3,100-kilometer border.
