Sweden Acknowledges India's Role as 'Pharmacy of World'; Says Focusing on Deeper Ties

Acknowledging India's role as the "pharmacy to the world", leading European nation Sweden said it is focusing on expanding bilateral cooperation in the areas of health and life sciences in view of the coronavirus pandemic.
