Interesting choice of countries. Spain for mining/steel and Sweden for clean energy makes perfect sense. Hope they focus on sustainable development too.

While I appreciate the effort, I hope they're being transparent about the costs of this trip. Foreign visits can be expensive - would like to see the ROI in terms of actual investments.
