Gaston Browne, Prime Minister, welcomed Urs Schnider, Switzerland’s Ambassador to Antigua and Barbuda, yesterday and thanked him for his country’s offer of support to set up the diplomatic mission.
“We need to strengthen our presence in Europe, we have had the practice of appointing honorary consuls; however, that comes with some level of risk," said Browne
Undoubtedly we need presence in Switzerland, but we do not have the finances to maintain an office, so this sign by your government is most appreciated, said he.
Browne said in the World Trade Organization (WTO) and Europe it will now help us to put a responsible Antiguan there to represent us.
"The twin-island nation’s support for Switzerland’s Candidacy in the International Fora," expressed Browne.
