Mzembi To Mend Diplomatic Relations With Western Countries

 

Foreign Affairs Minister Walter Mzembi has said that he is going to engage Western countries after years of frosty relationships. Mzembi wants to establish robust commercial diplomacy. speaking at the United Nations Day commemorations on Monday, Mzembi said:

I also intend, going forward, to pursue a thrust on rapprochement, we need to get back together with many of our friends that have gone away.

…We need to convert our political relations now into economics so that we can uplift the lives of our people.

My desire is to keep the flame burning around old friendships and we have many of them, they are manifest in this room.

It will be marked by my own deployment in this sector, which in itself is very symbolic of the regeneration of our government. I am arguably the youngest Foreign Affairs minister to be deployed in this portfolio and in itself it is a signal from the President on how we are going to engage together.
