Afterwards, the Dutch princess spoke with those involved in the 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗽 𝗡𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱-𝗔𝗿𝘂𝗯𝗮.
The 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗽 𝗡𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱-𝗔𝗿𝘂𝗯𝗮, founded in 1997, is committed to strengthening the ties between the two countries within the Kingdom. Economic, social, educational, political and cultural relations have existed between the Netherlands and Aruba for a long time. In recent decades, the deepening has received an impulse, especially since the independent status as a country Aruba within the Kingdom of the Netherlands in 1986.
