President receives credential letters from new ambassadors

Luanda – The Angolan Head of State, João Lourenço, received Friday in Luanda the credential letters of four new ambassadors, all with non-resident status in the country.

This procedure allows the new heads of diplomatic missions to represent the political, diplomatic, commercial, economic and cultural interests of their respective countries in the Republic of Angola.

In the Main Hall of the Presidential Palace, the ambassadors of Iran, Mehdi Aghajafari, and of the Kingdom of Denmark, Tobias Rahfeld, handed over their credentials to President João Lourenço.

The ambassador of Niger, Mariama Seydou and the ambassador of Czech Republic, Pavel Rezac, also delivered their letters of credence.

The new ambassadors are based in South Africa.

Last Thursday, President João Lourenço, in a similar ceremony, accredited four new ambassadors, three residents and one non-resident.
