Indonesia and Spain have agreed to jointly market aircraft in the United States and discussed cooperation in agriculture, energy and tourism.

Spanish Prime Minister Felipe Gonzalez, on a three-day visit last week to Southeast Asia’s largest nation, had two hours of talks with Indonesian President Suharto. Separate ministerial groups discussed economic and foreign policy.

Indonesian Minister of State Murdiono, briefing reporters after the talks, said the two countries agreed to form a joint marketing company in the United States to sell Spanish-designed aircraft built in Indonesia by the state aircraft company IPTN. They aim to have the firm set up by September.
