Yesterday I received the Open Letters of new non-resident Ambassadors to Ghana. The esteemed envoys are: Her Excellency Anna Westerholm- Ambassador-Designate of Sweden to Ghana; His Excellency Martin Podstavek, Ambassador-Designate of Slovakia to Ghana; Her Excellency Sanna Selin, Ambassador-Designate of Finland to Ghana; and His Excellency Thirapath Mongkolnavin. Ghana and Slovakia have agreed to immediately commence negotiations for a Visa Waiver Agreement. Slovakia will host a Ghana-Slovakia business forum within the next two weeks focusing on the automotive, banking and pharmaceutical sectors. We are also exploring a partnership to deliver buses and a vehicle assembly plant in Ghana. Ghana and Sweden cherish our longstanding relations since the 17th-century. Sweden will work with us to advance our cooperation under President Mahama’s New Economy initiative. Areas of focus include railway construction, AI investments, agribusiness, partnerships to digitalize revenue administration and defence cooperation. Ghana and Finland will continue to cement our excellent relations. We have agreed to expand existing cooperation in education, TVET, Fintech incubation, maritime security and counterterrorism collaboration. Ghana and Thailand will work together on Ghana’s application for BRICS partnership considering that Thailand is a successful official BRICS partner nation. Ghana and Thailand have also agreed to hold political consultations, exchange expertise on rice production with the view to curbing Ghana’s unsustainable rice imports and create local capacity and jobs, share knowledge on labour mobility partnerships and deepen fisheries cooperation in order to boost the production of canned fish in Ghana under a special partnership. For God and Country 🇬🇭 🙏🏾
