External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Sunday inaugurated the new Chancery of the Indian Embassy in Rome, Italy, and hailed the historical India-Italy ties saying the two maritime countries give a different perspective to the world.
The Foreign Minister further emphasised that a lot of India’s historical connect with Europe was with Italy.
“Our historical connect is actually very deep and I would not be exaggerating if I said that a lot of India’s historical interface with Europe was actually with Italy. This was almost the landing point for anything coming to India or going out of India. So for us, Italians have been producers, they have been customers, they have been financiers, they have been carriers in our commerce. Our countries are also maritime nations. I think that gives a very different perspective to the world,” he said.
Jaishankar said that the Chancery of Indian Embassy in Rome will help serve better the Indian community in Italy.
Taking to social media platform X, the EAM said that the new chancery befits the continued expansion of India-Italy partnership in recent years and will help in better serving the Indian community in Italy.
“Pleased to inaugurate the new Chancery of the Embassy of India in Rome today. It befits the continued expansion of India – Italy partnership in recent years. Will also help us serve better the Indian community in Italy,” he stated.
