Spain-Argentina statement on the appointment of Spanish Ambassador to Argentina

Spain and Argentina are brother peoples, united by deep human and social ties. Our common language and culture and the important economic, trade and investment exchanges must always act as a guide in the relations between our two countries.

The relationship between our Governments must match the intensity of the ties that unite our peoples and societies. We are therefore committed to strengthening our relationship so that it reaches the highest level of trust and mutual respect in political and institutional terms that our peoples deserve.

As priority partners, both bilaterally and within our respective regional blocs, the European Union and Mercosur, we must work together to increase our trade exchanges and to achieve a rapid and effective conclusion of the European Union-Mercosur Association Agreement. ​

As members of the Ibero-American Community of Nations, we must continue to strengthen the organisation as a space for progress, solidarity and consensus for the benefit of the peoples of Ibero-America, with a view to the Ibero-American Summit to be held in Spain in 2026.

We pledge to always seek points of connection in the pursuit of our common goal, which is the well-being of our citizens.
