It’s official, the French ambassador to the Comoros, Sylvain Riquier, gives in his seat. He had been in office since August 4, 2021. His successor, Etienne Chapon, held the post of consul general of France in Johannesburg in South Africa.
Ambassadors are passing diplomats. Sylvain Riquier, the representative of France in the Comoros, had taken office on August 4, 2021, after four years, he will yield his seat to Étienne Chapon, writes Al-Watwan. He was, before this appointment, the Consul General of France in Johannesburg. By becoming, the French ambassador to the Comoros, he changes his status. The new diplomat is now a state agent.
Now, French ambassador, his action goes far beyond the administrative tasks devolved to the consul. He will transmit and receive government messages. He will be responsible for returning the responses of his Comorian interlocutors.
Its mission is to promote French culture, economy and sciences.
He is responsible for informing the French government about political, social, military and other events that affect the country where it resides.
His predecessor, Sylvain Riquier, has fulfilled this task. This position is sometimes difficult, but diplomacy has made it possible to round the angles, as confirmed by the Comoros Gazette.
