India's hopes of getting membership in the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) brightened as Mexico extended support to India's membership during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the country.
"President Enrique Pena Nieto @EPN says Mexico supports positively and constructively India's membership of the NSG," tweeted External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup.
Modi thanked the Mexican President for the support.
Modi arrived here from the US on the fifth and final leg of his five-nation tour on Wednesday night.
On June 6, Switzerland, an important member of the NSG, extended support to India's membership in the group during Modi's stopover in Geneva en route to the US from Qatar.
