PANAMA CITY, March 26 (Xinhua) -- Panamanian President Martin Torrijos and Belgium Prince Philippe met here on Thursday to negotiate an agreement on investment protection.
The agreement was signed on Thursday by Panamanian temporary Foreign Minister Ricardo Duran and Belgian Business Minister Vincent Van Quickenborne.
Van Quickenborne hailed the importance of commercial protection approaches between the two countries as the commercial cooperation and the European investors' interest in the Panama Canal deepened.
The agreement would guarantee the juridical security of investment made in both countries, said Severo Sousa, Panamanian Vice Minister of Foreign Trade.
It would also spur those who wanted to invest in the two countries, said him.
