Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Government is looking to tap into commercial diplomacy in a bid to attract investors.<\/b><\/p>\n

This was revealed by Minister of Foreign Affairs Thuli Dladla during a training workshop for newly-appointed Eswatini envoys.<\/p>\n

The workshop, which began on Monday, is expected to continue throughout the week.<\/p>\n

The minister said as the nation strives to recover from successive blows to its socio- economic development ambitions, Eswatini looks to pivot towards commercial diplomacy to bring in much needed investments. She explained that the presentations to be delivered throughout the week focus on the investment and growth priorities for Eswatini, a key aspect of envoys\u2019 mandate when engaging existing and new co-operation partners in their areas of jurisdiction.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe purpose of this undertaking is to familiarise you with the workings of the foreign service, to share the country\u2019s policy and strategic direction for the financial year 2022\/33, medium term and long-term, and to engage on other issues of national interest,\u201d the minister said.<\/p>\n

She added that the country\u2019s missions abroad were institutions that mirror the country with the rest of the world, therefore, the workshop would generate a conducive environment to share strategies and engage the new national policy frameworks for economic and sustainable development of the country.<\/p>\n

According to the minister commercial and multilateral diplomacy complements, and in certain aspects even supersedes, traditional bilateral diplomacy.<\/p>\n

She explained that new concepts have evolved, and will continue to evolve. \u201cWe speak today of economic, environmental, preventive, and multi-track diplomacy.<\/p>\n

The coining of new phrases constantly enriches the vocabulary of this profession, reflecting new trends in political thinking and in the methods and tools used by nations in pursuit of their diverse national interests. As the nation strives to recover from successive blows to its socio- economic development ambitions, we look to pivot towards commercial diplomacy to bring in much needed quality investments,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
