Four newly appointed ambassadors were officially accredited on Tuesday 3rd June during a reception hosted at the Yacht Club de Monaco by Isabelle Berro-Amadeï, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation.
Earlier that morning, the ambassadors presented their Letters of Credence to Prince Albert II. The formalities were followed by a diplomatic luncheon, which offered an opportunity for open dialogue and reinforced Monaco’s commitment to fostering ties with diverse regions around the world.
The newly accredited ambassadors include Ahmed Mohamed Nasser Al Araimi, Ambassador of the Sultanate of Oman and former adviser to the Gulf Cooperation Council in Brussels; Esther Rabasa Grau, Ambassador of the Principality of Andorra, who previously held postings in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg; Deng Li, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China and former Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, having also served in Turkey; and Arnoldas Pranckevicius, Ambassador of Lithuania, who recently served as Permanent Representative to the European Union from 2022 to 2024.
Also in attendance were Monaco’s Ambassador to China, Marie-Pascale Boisson, the Honorary Consul of Oman, as well as representatives from the Monaco Economic Board and Monaco Private Label. Discussions centred on deepening the Principality’s bonds of friendship and cooperation with each of these nations.
