Roberto Rosenzweig of Mexico City has been appointed Mexico’s ambassador to the United Nations. Officials here said the Jewish career diplomat was being sent to the UN because of his experience in the Middle East. Prior to his new appointment, he had been Mexican Ambassador to Egypt. At the UN, Rosenzweig succeeds Alfonen Gercie Robles, who has been named Mexican Foreign Minister, succeeding Emilio Rabasa, who resigned last month.
