Andorra & Hungary: Mutual Support on the International Stage

Boosting Touristic Cooperation

The meeting between Andorra's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Imma Tor, and her Hungarian counterpart, Péter Szijjártó, has marked a milestone in the bilateral relationship between both countries. One of the most notable aspects of this meeting has been the exchange of perspectives on the tourism sector, with a particular focus on touristic cooperation between Andorra and Hungary.

Andorra, known for its thermal leisure center Caldea, and Budapest, Hungary's capital with its various thermal waters, find similarities in this regard, opening opportunities for collaboration and the exchange of experiences in the field of health and wellness tourism. As a result of this meeting, an action plan has been agreed upon to materialize the memorandum of understanding existing between both countries in the field of tourism.

Additionally, the upcoming participation of the director general of Hungary's snow and mountain tourism agency in the World Congress of Snow, Mountain, and Wellness Tourism in Andorra reinforces the commitment of both nations to promote sustainable and high-quality tourism.

Strengthening Economic Cooperation

In the economic sphere, Andorra and Hungary have evaluated the results of two years of the Double Taxation Agreement (DTA) between both countries. This agreement has laid the groundwork for greater economic cooperation in tax matters and has facilitated the development of commercial relations between Andorra and Hungary.

Furthermore, the possibility of signing an agreement for the Protection of Foreign Investments has been explored, with the aim of ensuring a secure and favorable environment for investments in both countries. Such agreements are considered essential to promote economic diversification and protect the interests of investors in a globalized and dynamic context.

The economic cooperation between Andorra and Hungary not only benefits both countries but also contributes to the growth and development of the region as a whole. By strengthening economic ties between Andorra and Hungary, new opportunities for investment, trade, and job creation are opened up in both countries.

Mutual Support on the International Stage

The visit of Péter Szijjártó holds special significance due to the support expressed by Hungary towards Andorra in the negotiation process of the association agreement with the European Union (EU). With the EU presidency about to be assumed by Hungary, additional momentum is expected to conclude these negotiations favorably for both parties.

Hungary's support reflects the importance of strengthening the competitiveness of the EU in an increasingly challenging global environment. In this regard, both Andorra and Hungary share the vision of maintaining low taxes as a key strategy to preserve their competitiveness and attract investments.

Cooperation between Andorra and Hungary is not limited solely to the economic and touristic fields but also encompasses areas such as diplomacy and the defense of human rights. Both countries share fundamental values and principles, which allows them to collaborate closely in the international arena in promoting peace, security, and sustainable development.

The meeting between representatives of Andorra and Hungary marks a significant step in strengthening bilateral relations between both countries. Cooperation in key areas such as tourism and the economy sets the stage for a promising future characterized by mutual growth and sustainable development.

The commitment demonstrated by both nations to support each other on the international stage reflects the importance of solidarity and collaboration among countries, especially in a context of global challenges. With a shared vision of promoting the well-being and prosperity of their citizens, Andorra and Hungary open up new opportunities for joint growth and the construction of a more prosperous and equitable future for all.
