Ambassador Martinez with Cochran Fellows

Ambassador Martinez hosted a reception at her official residence in honor of the Argentine fellows who participated in the Cochran Fellowship Program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. This program recently completed the 25th anniversary of its creation and implementation in several countries around the world. During her welcome speech, Ambassador Martinez expressed her satisfaction at the results obtained through the program, which not only allowed training of professionals related to the agricultural sector, but also helped strengthen ties between the United States and Argentina, both with the public and private sector.
