00:00to move to the next stage.

00:02If you look at trade today,

00:05there is a good possibility that this will increase.

00:14Ambassador has been telling me

00:15that a lot of new areas are today under consideration.

00:21Or it's made copy with star say hum logo

00:23kibad be with the arch that we are looking at areas

00:29like railways, like auto sector, clean technologies.

00:34These all offer new drone space.

00:37These are all possibilities for greater collaboration.

00:42But there is in a way also developments in the world

00:48which will bring us closer.

00:50That I've done today, I've come to New York

00:53and I'll do it today, I'll just take that.

00:57So those countries who are close to each other,

01:01who feel that supply chains, contracts are honored,

01:06supply chains can be built, relationships can be expanded.

01:11They have the ability today really to forge closer relations.

01:15So, yeah, just billion,

01:17we are very confident that in the coming days

01:25it will definitely be something which is very much higher.

01:31In all of this, I must tell you,

01:33and this did not surprise me at all,

01:35that I heard very good words for the community.

01:40Minister Alvarez,

01:42so I said I'm meeting the community.

01:46So he was very effusive, said that look,

01:49you have a community whose image is very good,

01:54that they are contributing to the economy, to the society.

01:59We feel that Indian talent,

02:01Indian professionals are very welcome here.

02:05It is something I hear across the world,

02:08but every time I hear it, I feel good.

02:10So I want to thank all of you that when we say,

02:14you know, I mean, foreign minister,

02:18yeah, diplomacy, what is it we try to do?

02:23We try to build the image of the country.

02:26But when that image is built by the community,

02:29yeah,

02:34that for us is like a, like I would say, really a big,

02:38I won't even say bonus.

02:39It is actually, it's a foundation

02:43on which we actually take forward our relationship.

02:48And I heard very good words.

02:51And I must say for me,

02:55because we have just two days ago

02:59come out of the Prawasi Bharti Diwas celebrations in India.

03:03And I was very glad to note,

03:14I think this year among the Saman awardees,

03:17there is an awardee from Spain, Mr. Nahar.

03:22And I think there were also a representative from Spain

03:25who spoke on the occasion, Mr. Mehta.

03:28So on the community side, you know,

03:32it is community has always been a support

03:35for Indian foreign policy.

03:36That is the case here also.

03:38And I take the opportunity to express

03:41my appreciation and gratitude.

03:45In terms of our people to people relations,

03:48it's made though, though we share hand,

03:50you may have to look at John Milano Chatham.

03:53One, which, you know, I met some people coming in

03:57who are from Barcelona.

03:59So I hope you welcome that we have a consulate there.

04:02And we have a consul general also with us today.

04:06So the fact that we have a consulate

04:10and there will also, I believe,

04:12soon be a Spanish consulate in Bengaluru.

04:15So these are good signs.

04:17These are good signs that our relationship is deepening.

04:21And you create more, you know,

04:25higher or bigger establishment

04:27because you can say the business is becoming bigger.

04:31So as the relationship deepens for us to have a consulate

04:36and, you know, who knows where we will be

04:39further in the future.

04:40This is something which is a good development.

04:43The other development which I want to share with you

04:45is that we have decided that 2026,

04:50we will market as a, as what they call,

04:53I think a dual year, right?

04:55A dual year where we will be celebrating culture,

04:59tourism, art.
