On March 5, 2020, the Costa Rica Support and Promotion Office (OSPCR) and the Multilateral Chamber of Commerce and Cooperation Israel Ibero-America (now the Israel Ibero-America Chamber of Commerce) organized a meeting at Costa Rica’s Presidential House between H.E. Mr. Jordi Gallardo, Minister of Economy of the Principality of Andorra, and H.E. Ms. Silvia Lara, Minister of the Presidency a.i. of Costa Rica.
The meeting was held on the occasion of the Government of Andorra’s first official visit to the Republic of Costa Rica.
Strengthening relations between Andorra and Costa Rica
During the meeting, the participants assessed opportunities to strengthen government relations between the Principality of Andorra and the Republic of Costa Rica.
Andorra is a principality located in the Pyrenees, between Spain and France, whose role of head of state is held jointly by two co-princes: the Bishop of Urgell and the President of the French Republic. The abbreviation “a.i.” (ad interim) indicates that the minister held the post on an interim basis.
