Today is International Equal Pay Day.

Gender Equality is one of the cornerstones of Iceland's foreign policy.

On the international stage, Iceland is a leading voice for women's empowerment, equal opportunities, equal pay, justice and a life free from gender-based violence.

Equality benefits us all.

Warm birthday wishes to Prime Minister Narendra Modi from the Embassy of Iceland.

Earlier this year, Prime Minister Modi met with Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir on the sidelines of the India-Nordic Summit in Oslo, where the two leaders reaffirmed the growing partnership between Iceland and India.

From the India-EFTA TEPA to cooperation on clean energy, sustainability, and technology, the sambandh between our two nations has never been stronger.

Wishing Prime Minister Modi continued health and success.

Deputy Chief of Mission Tinna Sveinsdóttir travelled to Kandy, Sri Lanka, from 26 to 28 August as part of a delegation of diplomats invited to witness the Kandy Esala Perahera, one of Sri Lanka's most iconic and ancient living traditions.

The visit, facilitated by the High Commission of Sri Lanka in New Delhi, brought together Ambassadors and senior diplomatic representatives from across the diplomatic community to experience Sri Lanka's cultural and religious heritage firsthand, from the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and the Thewawa ceremony to the spectacular Randoli Perahera procession on the evening of 27 August.

The programme also included a traditional Kandyan dinner hosted by the Chief Custodian of the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, a visit to the Royal Botanic Gardens in Peradeniya, and an introduction to Sri Lanka's tea heritage at the Hantana Tea Museum.

A wonderful reminder that diplomacy is as much about people, culture, and shared experiences as it is about policy. Our thanks to the High Commission of Sri Lanka in New Delhi for a truly memorable few days.

In addition to India, the Embassy is also accredited to Sri Lanka, Nepal, Australia, and New Zealand.

The agenda spanned the future of the global order, Arctic and Indo-Pacific connectivity, market access and trade, talent mobility, geospatial intelligence, and India-Nordic tech ecosystems. The keynote address was delivered by Shri Pabitra Margherita, Minister of State for External Affairs.

The Dialogue was jointly organised by Nordic international affairs institutes and Ananta Centre with Iceland represented institutionally by the Institute of International Affairs of Iceland.

The Nordic-India Dialogue has grown into an important platform for sustained, high-level exchange between India and the Nordic nations. A warm thank you to our Nordic colleagues and to Ananta Centre for bringing this important dialogue to New Delhi.

It is with profound sadness that we mourn the passing of Gul Kripalani, Iceland’s Honorary Consul in Mumbai since 2010.

For fifteen years, Gul represented Iceland with extraordinary dedication, warmth and integrity, and with a genuine affection for our country. He was a valued member of the Icelandic family in India, and his contribution to strengthening the bonds between Iceland and India was immeasurable.

Honorary Consuls play a unique and invaluable role in diplomacy, building bridges through their knowledge, commitment and personal relationships. Gul embodied the very best of this role.

We are deeply grateful for all that he did for Iceland and will remember him with great respect and affection. Our heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones.

The Embassy of Iceland welcomed a cohort of students from the Raisina House Foreign Policy School, visiting New Delhi from across the country as part of their Delhi Immersion Week, a week-long programme exploring foreign policy in a changing world.

Ambassador Benedikt Höskuldsson sat down with the group for an interactive conversation on the deepening India-Iceland partnership, Iceland's role in the Arctic, and the broader geopolitical currents shaping the region.

It is always a pleasure to engage with the next generation of foreign policy thinkers.
