LA PAZ, June 5 (NNN-Prensa Latina) – Representatives of Bolivia and the European Union (EU) in this country agreed on the need to strengthen integration and cooperation to confront common problems and challenges.

‘We are interested in strengthening the relationship of our regions, having greater dialogue and in that framework, we are willing to continue to work,’ the head of Bolivian diplomacy added.
For his part, EU Ambassador to Bolivia Leon de la Torre called to bet on reciprocal trade and investment based on multilateralism, as well as an increasingly stronger relationship among the countries of the region.
These statements were made in the framework of the conference ‘Trajectory of Relations between the Plurinational State of Bolivia and the European Union, Vision and Future,’ held in La Paz.
