He stated the purpose of the visit was expansion of political and economic relations with regions' countries.

"We hope to develop trade relations with all the countries of Latin America," Gvinjia noted.

"In particular, serious partners in business can be Nicaragua, Argentina, Equador, Venezuela".

He added that the Abkhazian delegation held a number of meetings in Argentina with representatives of political and public circles.

The Minister noted the warm welcome given to the delegation. "No-one assured that Argentina won't recognize Abkhazia, therefore we have hope that Argentina will be the next Latin American country to recognize Abkhazia".
