India is a great opportunity for our small and medium-sized enterprises, but we must accompany them pragmatically. The Sistema Italia that we are building for the first time thanks to the Meloni government is finally allowing us to act as a leading country in the economic sphere. President Meloni has met several times with her Indian colleague, and three ministers have visited India in the past year. These are facts and not the empty words of others who have wearied and disillusioned our entrepreneurs for years. Yesterday, as chairman of the committee on international trade of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, I spoke about this at the Indian Embassy, during an official visit by Sanoj Kumar Jha, Additional Secretary of the Indian Ministry of Food Processing, in the presence of industry representatives from the Asian country, including the Processed Food and Agricultural Products Export Development Authority (APEDA), the Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA), the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), the Indian Institute of Food Processing Technology (NIFTEM), Invest India, and Italian food processing companies.
