Colombian Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Ms. Cecilia López, travelled to Ireland to participate in the OECD Rural Development conference in Co. Cavan from 28 – 30 September. This was the first Colombian Ministerial visit since the Government of President Gustavo Petro assumed office in August. This visit follows the successful visit of former Vice President of Colombia Marta Lucia Ramirez to Áras an Uachtaráin in April 2022.
Minister López was accompanied by Ambassador (Patricia) Cortés Ortiz who presented credentials here in 2019.
