New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said on Friday that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will make his first official visit to New Zealand next week.
– The two nations signed a free trade agreement in April that will eliminate 95% of tariffs on goods from New Zealand.
– “Prime Minister Modi’s visit is historic, with this being the first to New Zealand by an Indian Prime Minister in 40 years,” Luxon said in a statement.
– Modi will arrive in Auckland on July 10, departing a day later.
