"The signing of this agreement will give us the opportunity for both Uruguay and Lanzarote to have more resources to promote exchange between both destinations and make them more competitive and, therefore, more comfortable for the families of Lanzarote and many of the people who, in their day, emigrated to Uruguay, and who deserve and want that relationship and that bond of union to never be broken,” he concluded.
