Texas Secretary of State John B. Scott recently visited the Peruvian Consulate General in Houston, United States, the Foreign Affairs Ministry has reported.

During the event, the presence and participation of the Peruvian community in this State were highlighted, stressing that its cultural expressions and gastronomy are becoming increasingly well known.

The illustrious visitor offered the support from the Secretariat of State to continue strengthening trade and cooperation relations between our country and Texas.

Similarly, he thanked Consul Rodolfo Coronado Molina —in his capacity as Dean of the Houston Consular Corps— for promoting the forging of a close relationship which involves the almost 90 consuls accredited to Houston and the Governor's Office in Austin.

Thus, a visit to the southern State capital is being organized for October.

John B. Scott took up duties as Texas Secretary of State in October 2021, and is the main state authority on electoral matters, as well as on the management of Texas foreign and protocol relations with consular representations.
