Honduran foreign minister visits India, inaugurates embassy in New Delhi

External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar held talks with Honduras’ Foreign Minister Eduardo Enrique Reina García last week, who concluded his four-day visit to India on May 18.

The ministers discussed bilateral cooperation across trade, investment, development, health, digital technology, energy, and disaster response, according to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA). They also exchanged views on regional and global issues, with Jaishankar thanking Honduras for its support in opposing terrorism.

García and Jaishankar jointly inaugurated the Embassy of Honduras in New Delhi on May 15, a move aimed at boosting diplomatic engagement between the two countries. India welcomed the opening as a step towards deepening ties with the Latin American and Caribbean region.

The embassy is expected to facilitate cooperation in sectors such as tourism, agriculture, innovation, and healthcare.

India has increased outreach to Latin American countries in recent years, seeking closer ties through trade, technology partnerships, and development cooperation.
