India and Romania signed three bilateral agreements in New Delhi on Wednesday covering science and technology, education, and sports. The pacts were exchanged between external affairs minister S Jaishankar and Romania's foreign minister Luminita Odobescu. The science and technology deal includes joint research projects and scientist exchanges. The education agreement provides for mutual recognition of academic qualifications. The sports accord covers training of athletes and coaches. Both ministers also took stock of all bilateral ties.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

This trilateral pact deepens ties between two countries. India's total trade with Europe stands at about $100 billion. Romania is one of the fastest-growing economies in Central and Eastern Europe. The new pacts open avenues for technology transfer and academic exchanges. India's space agency ISRO has existing satellite cooperation with Romania. A joint science committee will meet within six months to finalise specific projects. Watch for a sharp rise in student visas from Romania to India in the next academic year.
