“Had a productive meeting with President Pedro Sánchez in Delhi. Discussed ways to boost the India-Spain friendship, especially in areas such as defence, security, technology and more. Our nations are marking 2026 as the India-Spain Year of Culture, Tourism and AI. This will deepen people-to-people linkages. Glad to see a big delegation of Universities also come to India. This too will go a long way in connecting our people.

The historic FTA with the EU will have a very positive impact on the economic partnership with Spain and provide new opportunities to the people of our nations.

“Tuve una reunión productiva con el presidente Pedro Sánchez en Delhi. Hablamos de formas de fortalecer la amistad entre la India y España, especialmente en ámbitos como la defensa, la seguridad, la tecnología y otros.

Nuestros países celebran 2026 como el Año India-España de la Cultura, el Turismo y la IA. Esto profundizará los vínculos entre nuestros pueblos. Me alegra ver que también ha venido a la India una gran delegación de universidades. Esto también contribuirá en gran medida a acercar a nuestros pueblos.

El histórico acuerdo de libre comercio con la UE tendrá un impacto muy positivo en la asociación económica con España y brindará nuevas oportunidades a los ciudadanos de nuestros países.
