EU Ambassador

Governor Parkop paid a personal visit to M  Fradin at the EU Embassy, having not officially welcomed the Ambassador since his arrival in Papua New Guinea in September last year.

During the meeting, Governor Parkop welcomed Ambassador Fradin to the capital city as the host Governor and expressed his gratitude for the EU's presence in Papua New Guinea.

He also assured him of his support as the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee for Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment.

To mark this significant milestone, a documentary titled “EU-PNG, 40 Years of Partnership”, will premiere in Port Moresby on the 25^th of June.

The European Union-PNG partnership started in 1977, shortly after PNG’s independence.

EU Ambassador, Ioannis Giogkarakis-Argyropoulos, says what PNG and the EU have achieved together over this period has been truly remarkable, especially considering the distance that separates us physically.
