Such definitions were made during a virtual meeting between the general director for Multilateral Cooperation at the Norwegian Foreign Ministry, Merete Fjeld Brattested, and Cuban Interim Chargé d’Affaires Mario Alzugaray.
Brattested explained to Alzugaray the organizational structure of her department, as a reflection of Norwegian diplomacy’s priorities in the multilateral sphere, in a period marked by the European country’s non-permanent membership in the United Nations Security Council.
The two countries were the guarantors of the negotiating table between the Government of Colombia and the then Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia-People’s Army (FARC-EP) that led to the signing of the peace agreement in November 2016.
