Mexican Chamber of Deputies President Sergio Gutierrez Luna, in an interview aired by China Media Group (CMG) on Friday, lauded China's high-speed railway technology and expects enhanced bilateral cooperation in cutting-edge fields. In the field of infrastructure, many significant projects in Mexico feature the presence of Chinese builders. For example, the renovation of Mexico City Metro Line 1, along with initiatives like the light rail and the Tren Maya project -- a 1,554 km-long inter-city railway project in Mexico, exemplifies the collaboration between China and Mexico.
"The relationship between Mexico and China is close, and one example is China's involvement in the renovation of Mexico City Metro Line 1. Chinese companies not only participated in this project but also in many others in Mexico. I believe we should further promote the development of this relationship, as it has become an important bond between us," he said.
Gutierrez stressed that he will take a high-speed train to Xi'an City of northwest China's Shaanxi Province to personally experience high-speed railway service and learn about the cutting-edge technology in China.
"We know that China is at the forefront of development in fields such as railways. We will take a high-speed train to experience firsthand how this cutting-edge technology is applied. These are the areas we are interested in, as Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has prioritized the strengthening of two important rail lines in Mexico -- one from central Mexico to Texas, the USA, and another from central Mexico to Arizona, the USA," he said in the interview, which was made during his visit to China from May 19 to 23.
