The discussion also focused on strengthening areas of cooperation such as the advancement of the sugar industry, economic sustainability, and climate change, among other issues that matter most to Fiji and the Pacific.
Prasad also conveyed his appreciation to the European Union for supporting Fiji over the years and wished Ambassador Seam well in his future endeavours.
