Mexico–Turkey relations refers to the bilateral relations between Mexico and Turkey. Both nations are members of the G-20 major economies, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and the United Nations. == History == The first official contact between Mexico and the Ottoman Empire (present day Turkey) was 1864 when Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico sent out emissaries to several nations to seek official recognition of his rule in the country.〔(La política exterior de Maximiliano de Habsburgo durante el Segundo Imperio Mexicano (in Spanish) )〕 Diplomatic relations between the two nations were established in 1928 after the transformation of Turkey from the Ottoman Empire by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, founder of the modern Turkish republic in 1923; and after the end of the Mexican revolution in 1920. That same year, both nations signed a 'Friendship Agreement'.〔(History of diplomatic relations between Mexico and Turkey (in Spanish) )〕 Almost immediately, both nations opened diplomatic legations in each other's capitals, respectively. In 1962, their respective diplomatic missions were upgraded to embassies.〔 In June 1992, Mexican Foreign Secretary Fernando Solana paid an official visit to Turkey, becoming at the time the highest level government official to visit the country. While in Turkey, Secretary Solana and his counterpart, Foreign Minister Suleyman Demirel signed agreements on cultural exchanges and of eliminating visa requirements for diplomatic passport holders of both nations. The two nations also agreed to establish a mechanism for political consultations to discuss points of views on bilateral and multilateral mutual interests.〔 In 2013, during the historic visit of Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto to Turkey, both nations signed agreements on:〔(Senado ratifica cinco acuerdos entre México y Turquía (in Spanish) )〕 * Establishing direct flights between Mexico and Turkey * Mutual cooperation in combating crime and organized terrorism * Mutual cooperation in combating drug trafficking * Double taxation * Customs information sharing Both nations are considered as regional powers and are playing bigger roles in the international community.
