A
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
coming
today.
I
want
to
thank
me,
immense
era
in
the
delegation
officials
from
Mexico
City
who
joined
us
this
morning.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
this
afternoon.
Thank
you
for
being
here
today.
I
want
to
thank
my
dear
friend,
conscious
general
rabasa,
who
is
no
stranger
to
this
building
on
my
office
of
this
room.
A
I
want
to
thank
you
for
everything
you
do
with
us
into
the
Mexico
for
the
relationship
between
Mexico
and
the
city
of
Mexico
in
the
city
of
Boston,
and
today
we
are
reaffirming
our
friendship
a
week
ago,
or
so.
The
Navy,
the
mexican
navy
tall
ship
was
moored
in
boston,
harbor,
see
we
hear
a
snowstorm
hit
like
today,
and
I
was
told
for
the
first
time
the
crew
had
never
seen
snow
before
so
the
cadets
had
to
shovel
the
snow
off
of
the
off
of
the
ship.
A
Not
only
did
they
see
snow,
but
they
learned
how
to
shovel
so
they
had
a
true
Boston
experience
it
in
all
seriousness.
Signing
this
agreement
is
a
great
honor
and
a
great
opportunity
for
the
city
of
Boston.
Building
friendships
with
Mexico
City
makes
us
stronger
cities
like
oz,
face
many
of
the
same
challenges,
but
working
together
we
can
bypass
some
of
the
political
noise
at
a
national
level.
We
can
make
real
real
progress
while
helping
both
of
our
nation's
we've
already
built
a
strong
foundation.
A
Two
years
ago,
city
of
Boston
leaders,
John
Barros,
led
a
delegation
went
to
Mexico
City
to
study
the
public
transportation
system,
something
that
we
certainly
know
a
lot
about
here
in
Boston
in
Massachusetts
that
we
need
to
fix
and
enhance
something
we
can
learn
from
Mexico
City.
Last
year,
our
chief
environmental,
violent
Austin
Blackmon
went
to
Mexico
City
for
the
c4c
40
global
climate
conference.
Last
year,
Boston's
MassChallenge
launched
a
startup
accelerator
in
Mexico
City,
one
of
just
five
locations
in
the
world.
A
The
memorandum
that
was
signing
today
is
designed
to
build
on
those
time.
Yes,
we
agree
to
cooperate
in
economic
development,
including
innovation,
investment,
trade
and
tourism,
and
certainly
transportation
and
sustainable
sustainability,
and
we
agreed
to
also
foster
a
cultural
dialogue,
especially
in
the
area
of
arts
and
sports.
And
most
of
you
know
this,
but
just
in
case
you
don't
this
fall.
Our
New
England
Patriots
will
be
playing
the
raiders
in
mexico,
city's
aztec
stadium,
the
world's
greatest
football
team,
will
be
playing
in
one
of
the
world's
greatest
stadiums.
A
It's
a
symbol
of
our
two
world-class
cities
coming
together
to
foster
a
stronger
friendship
and
growing
economic
success.
That's
the
work
we
do
today
and
every
day,
disagreement
before
I
turn
it
over
to
the
mayor.
This
agreement
did
not
come
on
the
heels
of
the
executive
order
in
Washington.
This
relationship
started
long
before
the
rhetoric
in
Washington
DC,
because
we
understand
in
the
city
of
Boston
in
the
city
of
Mexico,
understands
that
we
need
to
work
corporately
together
to
advance
our
two
great
cities.
