The newly appointed Ambassador of Belgium started his work in Ukraine
On Thursday, August 8, Belgian Ambassador to Ukraine Luc Jacobs presented his credentials to Deputy Foreign Minister Yevhen Perebyinos.
This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
During the presentation of his credentials, Perebyinis thanked Belgium for supporting Ukraine against the backdrop of full-scale Russian aggression and during the Belgian presidency of the Council of the European Union.
The parties also discussed Belgium's further involvement in promoting the Ukrainian "peace formula," support for Ukraine's path to EU and NATO membership, and bilateral relations.
"The Belgian diplomat assured of his determination to make every effort to further develop cooperation between Kyiv and Brussels," the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry added.
Luc Jacobs has been working in the Belgian diplomatic service since 1986, including at the country's permanent mission to the European Union and Poland. In 2014-2018, he was already ambassador to Ukraine, after which he was replaced by Alex Lenarts, who worked until 2022.
