Abstract
In this chapter, Honduran historian and sociologist Rolando Sierra Fonseca interprets the Mexican president’s visit to Central American countries in 1966 as a sign of a shift in Mexican foreign policy toward the area. Sierra Fonseca notes that this was the first visit by a Mexican head of state to that region and analyzes in detail the speeches Díaz Ordaz made at that time. He suggests that in the international postwar context, and with the watershed event that was the Cuban revolution, Mexico wanted to pursue closer ties with the countries of the isthmus and began a foreign policy of “greater solidarity” with Latin America.
