The President of the National Congress of Honduras, Luis Redondo, hosted the Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China, Yu Bo, this Wednesday. The central focus of their discussion was the forthcoming visit of His Excellency Mr. Li Hongzhong, a prominent member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and Vice President of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of China. This visit is scheduled for September and is expected to further strengthen the ties between the two nations.

Breakthrough for Honduran Shrimp

One of the key highlights of the meeting was the celebration of a major milestone for the Honduran shrimp industry. President Redondo and Ambassador Yu Bo applauded the recent signing of two pivotal contracts that facilitate the purchase and export of Honduran shrimp to the Chinese market. These contracts were secured at the prestigious International Fisheries and Seafood Exhibition held in Fuzhou, China.

High-Level Conferences and Legislative Cooperation

In addition to shrimp trade discussions, the meeting touched on broader cooperation initiatives. President Redondo and Ambassador Yu Bo discussed their countries’ participation in the upcoming high-level Interparliamentary Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Panama City. This conference represents another avenue for strengthening bilateral relations through collaborative technological and legislative efforts.

President Redondo also updated the plenary session of Honduran congressmen on a new cooperation agreement between the Legislative Branch of Honduras and the National People’s Assembly of China. This agreement aims to facilitate legislative exchanges, further solidifying the partnership between the two legislative bodies.
