Abstract
ZNOJEK, Bartłomiej. Mexico in Poland's foreign policy since 2004. Polít. globalidad. ciudad. [online]. 2022, vol.8, n.15, pp.73-96. Epub Nov 09, 2022. ISSN 2395-8448. https://doi.org/10.29105/pgc8.15-4.
The aim of the article was to characterize the Polish foreign policy towards Mexico since 2004-the year of Poland's accession to the European Union (EU). For that end the official discourse and documents of successive Polish governments on their foreign policy were analyzed and the development of the Polish-Mexican relations in three areas: political, economic and sociocultural was presented. Latin America has not been among the main areas of international interest for Poland, and the Polish governments rather concentrated on the largest region’s economies. The analysis in this text shows that in the concerned period Mexico has become a key Latin American partner for Poland. That was favored by a robust and an advancing framework for EU-Mexican relations, as well as an increasing interest of Poland in the less explored, but promising markets such as Mexico and the Pacific Alliance more broadly. The challenge for Polish-Mexican relations is to foster mutual interest and ensure the continuity of the various bilateral commitments agreed in recent years.
