President Yamandú Orsi received the credentials of Binoy George on Monday. Foreign Minister Mario Lubetkin said the appointment could create a new “great moment” for bilateral trade in the coming years if both governments work effectively together.

Lubetkin said he would travel to India in the coming days at Orsi’s request to meet officials and discuss possible cooperation in food, agriculture, technology, pharmaceuticals, space and robotics. He described India as the world’s most populous country and one of the world’s three or four most important areas for growth and commercial development.

In March next year, Orsi plans to travel to Japan with business leaders and civil society representatives, following an official visit to China in early February with a similar delegation.
