President receives the Ambassador of Lithuania on a Farewell Courtesy Call

President Higgins welcomed H.E. Ambassador Egidijus Meilunas of the Republic of Lithuania to Áras an Uachtaráin on a farewell courtesy call.

Upon their arrival in Ireland, and before they can carry out their duties, new ambassadors must be officially welcomed by the President of Ireland. Ambassadors are officially accredited to Ireland from the moment that the President accepts their Credentials. 
 
At the end of their term, the President invites the Ambassadors on a Courtesy Call to Áras an Uachtaráin, to thank the Ambassadors for their service, hear their experiences in Ireland and discuss the departing Ambassador’s views on issues of relevance to our bilateral relations.
