President Higgins welcomed H.E. Ms. Moira Wilkinson, Ambassador of Argentina, on a farewell courtesy call.
H.E. Ms. Wilkinson has completed a two and a half year assignment in Dublin and will return to the Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Buenos Aires in March 2023.
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 them for their service, hear their experiences in Ireland and discuss the departing Ambassador’s views on issues of relevance to our bilateral relations.
