Dear Prime Minister Lawrence Adams,
I hope this email finds you in good health and high spirits. It is with great pleasure that I extend an official invitation for you to undertake a state visit to Spain at a mutually convenient date later this year. The ties between our two nations are long-standing and deeply rooted in shared history, culture, and values. Our bilateral relations have always been characterized by mutual respect and cooperation in various spheres including trade, security, education, and tourism. A state visit would provide an excellent opportunity for us to further strengthen these bonds and to discuss new avenues for collaboration, particularly in areas of common interest such as climate change, technological innovation, and international security after our three-way meeting at the conference in Lisbon.
During your visit, I propose a series of discussions focusing on enhancing our economic partnership, addressing global challenges, and fostering cultural exchanges. Additionally, it would be an honor to host you at a state banquet, where you will have the opportunity to meet key figures from the Spanish government, business community, and cultural institutions.
Your visit would not only symbolize the enduring friendship between Spain and the United Kingdom but also underscore our shared commitment to building a prosperous and secure future for our citizens. I am confident that this visit will yield significant benefits for both our nations and contribute positively to the European and global stage.
Regards,
Pedro Sánchez
Prime Minister of Spain
Kingdom of Spain
