The participants welcomed the Memorandum of Understanding signed on 13 May by the civil aviation authorities of both countries and undertook to continue working together on issues of mutual interest, such as their participation in trade missions and international fairs. In addition, both delegations highlighted the importance of bilateral cooperation and productive linkage.

Furthermore, they discussed issues on the regional and global agendas and agreed on the importance of facilitating the exchange of good practices, as well as reactivating and streamlining the regional integration mechanisms of which Argentina and Peru are part.
