Asunción, Agencia IP.- The President of the Republic, Santiago Peña, stated that it is essential to increase relations between Paraguay and the United States political system, aiming to make known the relevance of our country in its defense of values and strategic position.

«We have to involve with Capitol Hill,» he assured during his participation in a discussion of the Association of American Chambers of Commerce in Latin America & Caribbean (AACCLA). Previous to the panel, Peña reported two meetings with Senator Martin Heinrich and legislator Mario Díaz-Balart to address «issues of binational interest.»

He said that Paraguay is an important country for the United States for its defense of values, such as democracy and freedom, for its relation with Taiwan, its support to Israel, and what it represents for the region’s security to impede the influence of Iran and China.
