Description:
Meet the EU Ambassador HE Lawrence Meredith
“The EU is a very close like-minded partner with New Zealand, both strong supporters of the rules-based international order and free trade. EU-New Zealand relations are going from strength to strength through cooperation on trade, research and innovation as well as climate and environment.”
His Excellency Lawrence Meredith, who heads the Delegation of the European Union to New Zealand, will be speaking about EU-New Zealand diplomatic relations, the valuable NZ-EU Free Trade Agreement, and current European issues.
