During the discussion, the role of youth and women in these processes was emphasized. The ambassadors recognized the need to exchange experiences and expressed readiness to strengthen ties and establish direct channels of communication between national governments. This would facilitate mutual information, coordination of actions, and the development of joint initiatives. The establishment of regular dialogue and more effective bilateral interaction would be achieved through these measures. Additionally, prospects for organizing visits and bilateral meetings at various levels were also explored during the meeting.
The Ambassadors reiterated their commitment to support candidates and initiatives of interest to both countries. They emphasized the importance of mutual cooperation to achieve their respective priorities and deepen multilateral partnership.
