India - European Union strategic partnership has strengthened over the years across diverse sectors and got a big boost with the first-ever visit of the EU College of Commissioners to India in February this year.

During the visit, Jaishankar will be holding a Strategic Dialogue with the EU High Representative and Vice President Kaja Kallas, and will engage with the senior leadership from the European Commission and the European Parliament, besides interacting with think tank and media.

As per MEA statement, India and Belgium share warm and friendly relations along with a very robust economic partnership.

"Today the collaboration between the two countries spans various domains like trade and investment, green energy, technology, pharmaceutical, diamond sector and strong people to people ties," the statement said.

During his visit to Belgium, EAM would hold bilateral consultations with the Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Belgium,  Maxime Prevot and would also meet the senior leadership of Belgium.

He will also interact with the members of the Indian community.
