Why is Argentina important for India?
The Prime Minister made it clear in the statement that India and Argentina have immense possibilities in many areas. According to this, Argentina is a pioneer in agricultural products and can become an important source of grains and oilseeds for India. Argentina is rich in lithium and other rare minerals, which are very important for India’s EV (electric vehicle) and battery manufacturing industry. Argentina’s Vaca Muerta Shell Gas Project can open the way for long -term energy partnership for India. With the participation of Argentina in India’s international solar alliance (ISA), both countries can increase green energy cooperation.
