Asunción, Agencia IP.- President of the Republic Santiago Peña met with Paraguayan business leaders in Florida, USA, where he reiterated his government’s commitment to legislative diplomacy and efforts to make Paraguay a competitive and globally recognized country.

During his speech, Peña highlighted that Paraguay has been working diligently to overcome its isolation and regain its place in the development of Latin America. «The great challenge for Paraguayans is overcoming this isolation, not physical but mental. Our problem is not physical landlockedness; our main problem is mental landlockedness, which prevents us from showcasing our potential to the world,» he indicated.

Peña also emphasized the importance of the relationship with the USA, noting that Paraguay has historically been the USA’s best ally in Latin America. «Paraguay has historically been the best ally the USA has had in Latin America, and we must go out and show the world our Paraguay. The world will not come looking for us in Paraguay if we do not showcase it,» he emphasized.

He also highlighted the government’s efforts to strengthen bilateral relations, including legislative diplomacy and promoting the economy and trade. «We have insisted a lot on going out to showcase, to tell the story of Paraguay, the present of Paraguay, but mainly the future,» he said.
