Spanish President Pedro Sanchez is set to embark on his maiden official visit to India from October 27-29. The visit aims to strengthen bilateral relations between the two nations, as President Sanchez will engage in delegation-level talks with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Ministry of External Affairs confirmed on Wednesday.
This historic visit comes 18 years after the last visit of a Spanish President to India.

President Sanchez's itinerary also includes a visit to Mumbai, where he will meet with trade and industry leaders, as well as think tanks and the film industry. His visit is anticipated to result in several agreements designed to boost cooperation across sectors such as trade, IT, defence, and renewable energy.
