“We are inviting India as the theme country at the Madrid International Book Fair in 2025. It is usually for publishers only. But, we can expand the horizon, to include cinema and music as well,” Jose Maria Ridao told.

He said as part of the cultural exchange between the two countries, Spain has donated books to five universities in Bengal, where the Spanish language is taught. Works of Spanish authors are also being published by leading Indian publishing houses, Ridao said.
