I welcome you all to this press event. To begin the proceedings, may I request the Honorable Prime Minister of India, Srinagar Modiji, to deliver his statement to the media. Your Excellency, Brazil's President, C. J. R. Bolsonaro, both countries' Prime Minister and right-wing friends, Namaskar, both are there, bevindo out of India. Dear friends, President Bolsonaro, and I welcome you all to India for the first time in the last eight months, this is our third meeting, this is a great friendship between us and the people of Brazil, and we will share our joy with a friend on this special occasion. I thank you all for accepting the invitation to India. This is the third opportunity that the President of Brazil has given us this respect. Friends, the strategic partnership between India and Brazil is based on our strong friendship. And that is why, despite being far away from each other, we are together on many of the islands of the world, and we are also the important partners in the development of each other. And that is why, today, President Bolsonaro and I have come together to strengthen our strategic partnership, and to strengthen it, a great action plan has been made. In 2023, both the countries will have a platinum jubilee of diplomatic relations. I am sure that by then, this action plan will make our strategic partnership people-to-people ties and business cooperation even deeper. I am happy that we have done a lot of important things today, such as bioenergy, cattle, genomics, health and traditional medicine, cyber security, science and technology, and we are focusing on new ways to increase the defense-industrial cooperation. We want a broad-based partnership in defense-yogh. We are happy to see these opportunities, that in the next few months, a large delegation of Brazil will take part in the deaf export 2020. I am happy that bioenergy, Ayurveda, and advanced computing have helped our academic and research institutions to improve research. Excellency, Brazil is a valuable partner in the economic transformation of India. In the field of food and energy, we look at Brazil as a trusted source for our needs. Our bilateral trade is increasing, but we can increase it by looking at both the major means and conditions. I am happy to welcome you to the Brazil-influenced business delegation in India. I am sure that the Indian business and business will have a good impact on their meeting. Friends, from both the countries, we have prepared a legal framework for the needy investment. Today, in the interconnected world, between India and Brazil, a significant step is taken to ease the social security agreement professionals. Friends, as there are two major international and advanced countries, a significant global and multilateral issue is deepening between India and Brazil. Whether it is a serious issue of terrorism or a question of innovation, our view on the difficult challenges faced by the world is very different. Brazil and India have a lot of resources. In a special way, our partnership with Brazil and India is a very important aspect. Today, we have decided that both the countries will help each other on multilateral issues. We will make our partners more important and we will try to improve the security of the country and other international organizations. Friends, I once again welcome you to the delegation of the international and multilateral Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. It is now my pleasure to invite his Excellency Mr. Jair Bolsonaro, President of the Federative Republic of Brazil, to deliver his remarks to the media. Dear Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi, ladies and gentlemen at large, media professionals attending this session, it gives me great pride to come to India at this point in time at the invitation as chief guest of honor for India's most important and high-profile celebration, which is your national republic day. What I have felt here since I arrived has come as no surprise. Tremendous human warmth, a tremendous sense of affection and care. Very much like we welcome the guests we love in Brazil, and that's again yet another element that brings us all together, the warmth of our two peoples, human warmth. We have just signed 15 agreements, and on our side we, of course as part of an international visit, we had no information on so many good agreements being signed during one bilateral visit, a state visit, the highest record, the highest number on record in our history. So we have indeed further consolidated our working bilateral relations, and I'm quite certain that in addition to all of these topics that we have covered today, we will see more matters of mutual interest emerge between us in our agendas, given the potentials that are there, and also given the very relevant profile of our two nations and economies. We will certainly make much further strides and progress. Brazil and India rank among the world's ten largest economies. Today, together we account for 1.5 billion people, and that being the case, it is just natural that we be in a position to offer a great deal to each other. Brazil has a lot to offer India, and the other way around is very much true. India does have a great deal to offer Brazil, likewise. So, yes, on the eve of India's National Republic Day, a very important date for India, I'm actually extremely anxious for tomorrow, I long for the celebrations tomorrow. So on the eve of that day today, what I can say is that I am deeply moved by the perception that our two great countries, by entering into major strategic partnerships, we will consolidate our relations and will ensure that the world at large will look at us in a different light. Different though, dear Prime Minister Modi, thank you very much for the opportunity. I must admit, I still have two more days before I go back to Brazil, but I already miss India, even before I leave. This concludes the press event. Thank you all for joining.
