Ever since both countries became important players in the oil industry, some competitive tensions arose, eventually leading to disputes after Mexico signed an agreement to join NAFTA. During President [[Vicente Fox]]'s term, relations between the two countries became critically strained to the point of recalling one another's ambassadors. It has been clear that diplomatic ties between both countries are not indefinitely severed, in recent years numerous groups, both in Mexico and Venezuela are working to restore the diplomatic relationship between the two countries, as they are of strategic economic and cultural importance. In August 2007, after two years of diplomatic absence in either country, normal relations were re-established with the appointment of former foreign minister Roy Chaderton as Venezuela's envoy in Mexico City and the transfer of Jesús Mario Chacón Carrillo, formerly Mexican ambassador to Colombia, to Caracas.

|{{flag|Philippines}}||<!--Date started-->April 14, 1953||See [[Mexico–Philippines relations]] Mexico and the [[Philippines]] share a myriad of traditions and customs derived from historical ties established over {{rounddown|{{age|format=raw|1565|1|1}}|-1}} years ago. Their common history dates back to the time when both countries were part of [[New Spain]]. Mexican money financed the expedition known as [[Miguel López de Legazpi|Legazpi exploration]], under the command of [[Philip II of Spain|King Philip II of Spain]]. During the Mexican administration of the Philippines, other than [[Miguel López de Legazpi|General Legazpi]], all of the governor-generals were born in Mexico. Due to the grand exchange with the Philippines in those days, many cultural traits were adopted by one another, with Mexicans remaining in the Philippines, and Filipinos establishing in Mexico, particularly the central west coast, near the port town of [[Acapulco]]. Many [[Nahuatl]] words were adopted and popularized in the Philippines, such as ''Tianggui'' (market fair) and ''Zapote'' (a fruit). After the colonial period, the first official contacts of Mexico with the Philippines were established in 1842, when a Mexican Representation was opened in Manila. With the assignment of Mexican Diplomat Evaristo Butler Hernandez in the Philippines in 1878. The Independence of the Philippines brought forth a new era of relations between these countries. Mexico dispatched an envoy to participate in the festivities to celebrate the birth of the [[Southeast Asian]] nation. Diplomatic ties between both countries were formalized on April 14, 1953. The year of 1964 was decreed the "Year of Philippine-Mexican Friendship" to celebrate the Fourth Centennial of the Expedition of Miguel López de Legazpi. In modern day, the conquest of the Philippines is seen as a Spanish initiative, while Mexico is viewed as a country of historical link and friendship, and several groups intend on strengthening the bond between the two countries.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://portal.sre.gob.mx/filipinaseng/index.php?option%3Ddisplaypage%26Itemid%3D59%26op%3Dpage%26SubMenu%3D |title=Embassy of Mexico in Philippines

Mexico's creditors demanded repayment, forcing then-President [[Benito Juárez]] to declare a two-year [[Debt moratorium|moratorium]] on [[foreign debt]], which in turn led to a punitive expedition sent by Britain, [[Second French Empire|France]] and Spain.
