Winston Peters, the foreign minister of new zealand, stated on wednesday that the two countries are committed to working more closely to address security problems in the Indo-Pacific and that they both want the region to be known for respecting the rule of law and peaceful conflict resolution. Peters concluded his four-day tour to india by saying that he and his indian counterpart, S Jaishankar, had decided during their meeting on tuesday to collaborate in order to create additional chances and strengthen the bilateral relationship. Peters visited gujarat and New delhi in order to strengthen trade and security-related relations.

The coalition government in new zealand has made improving ties with india a top priority in order to reap future benefits for both countries. "New Zealand and india have a clear shared strategic perspective about the security challenges that our Indo-Pacific region data-faces, and they are committed to working together to address these challenges," stated Peters. He stated that "New Zealand and india are two countries that can, should, and will be doing more together," and that his visit showed a shared commitment to making more investments in developing a wide-ranging, mutually beneficial partnership.

Regarding his encounter with Jaishankar, Peters mentioned that the two of them decided to collaborate in order to create additional chances and accomplish a "step-up in the relationship," which would involve more high-level political trips in both directions in 2024. Peters discussed trade and economic links in New delhi and gujarat, focusing on topics including education, agro-technology, tourism, air connectivity, and potential that can be realized through improved economic partnership. A strengthened air services agreement between the two nations was signed during the visit, simplifying code-sharing for flights between india and New Zealand. Although our national airlines have the final say on matters of a business nature, Peters expressed confidence that direct flights between new zealand and india would be possible over the next few years.
