Antigua and Barbuda: Hämmerli-Weschke, Ambassador of the Swiss Confederation to Antigua and Barbuda, paid a courtesy call to Minister Greene, on 28th June 2022 (Tuesday), after her presentation of credentials to the Governor-General of Antigua and Barbuda.

During the courtesy call, Minister Greene welcomed Ambassador Hämmerli-Weschke and gave the assurances of the government’s full support for a successful tenure. Both parties engaged in bilateral discussions, namely, education, climate change and the European Union’s overview of CIP programmes.

Ambassador Hämmerli-Weschke, in turn, thanked Minister Greene and the government by extension for their best wishes.
