President Reuven Rivlin met this morning with former President of Paraguay Horacio Manuel Cartes. The two met again after meeting last year at the opening of the Paraguayan embassy in Jerusalem.
"It's a great pleasure to see you here again, my friend," the President said, adding, "Thank you for all the efforts for Israel-Paraguay relations, both during and after your term."
Former President Cartes continues to be involved in the development of academic and commercial ties between the two countries.
The two also discussed football, a common passion they share.
