The delegation, including 110 state officials and businessmen, inaugurated Virginia’s European trade headquarters and outlined joint opportunities in farm products and European investment. Godwin met Premier Eyskens and Prince Albert, gifting mahogany tea caddies from Colonial Williamsburg. The group plans Spain and Antwerp visits before returning to Belgium.
