On the 19th of March we had the pleasure of visiting the Embassy of India. 🇮🇳 Our members have met the ambassador personally, and had the chance to discuss various topics with him, including the recently signed India-EU Free Trade Agreement, as well as the relations of India both with the EU and Hungary and the significance of the deal and further cooperation in the current geopolitical climate. 🇪🇺🇭🇺 After the discussions, we have attended the opening ceremony of the Art Exhibition "Faces of Bollywood", where we were greeted with Indian delicacies and visited the exhibition afterwards. 🍽 🎨
