    Sweden to Appoint its Ambassador to South Caucasian Countries

    The Editorial office of the website "nregion.com" became aware from
    reliable sources that in the near future, Sweden will, for the first
    time in its history, appoint an ambassador to the countries of South
    Caucasus, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia. The ambassador will be the
    experienced Swedish Diplomat Hans-Gunnar Adin. He had worked in Russia,
    France and the Ukraine until his appointment as the new Ambassador.

    Unfortunately Sweden is not going to open an embassy in any of the
    South Caucasian countries, Trend reports quoting Caucasus Press. The
    Ambassador's residence will be in Stockholm.

    As previously, Schengen visas to visit Sweden will be issued in
    Azerbaijan by the Consular Department of Norway, in Armenia by the
    German Embassy and in Georgia by the Embassy of Greece.

    It seems that by the appointment of its ambassador to the countries of
    South Caucasus, Sweden demonstrates its increasing interest towards
    the region. Adin is expected to visit the countries of the region in
    the near future.

    At present, the mission of the accredited ambassador in Georgia and
    Armenia has been implemented by the Swedish Ambassador to Russia,
    and in Azerbaijan by the Swedish Ambassador in Turkey.

    The Consulate of Sweden in Tbilisi is still in operation.
