[HIGHLIGHTS] The trade route from China to Mexico soars by 60% in January and is consolidated among the largest in the world

The trade route from China to Mexico soars by 60% in January and is consolidated among the largest in the world. China's largest airline, China Southern, will launch its first direct flight to Mexico City, in a sign that business between both countries is on the rise.

Last year, Mexico became the main country of origin of imports to the United States, dethroning China for the first time in 16 years. US legislators and officials have complained that China is using Mexico as a back door to enter its market.
