The meeting covered the current state of trade and economic ties, with plans laid out to draft an Industrial Cooperation Program and finalize a bilateral investment treaty. Discussions also delved into expanding collaboration in banking, finance, agriculture, tourism, transport and logistics, and environmental protection.
