Statement by the Spokesperson on the situation of the EU Chargée d'Affaires for The Gambia 12/06/2015

Ms. Federica Mogherini, EU Foreign Affairs Chief consultations with the EU’s Head of Delegation to The Gambia, resident there. This follows an unjustified request from the Gambian authorities that she departs before the formal end of her tour. Such an action iscontrary to acceptable diplomatic norms and practices, and would affect negatively the relations between Gambia and the EU. The EU is in contact with the Gambian authorities to resolve this issue.]]>
