Mission Statement by Ambassador Rula Almhaissen

“It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the official website of the Embassy of the State of Palestine to the Kingdom of Sweden.  

I am deeply honored to assume my new duties as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the State of Palestine to the Kingdom of Sweden.

I would like to affirm the importance that Palestine attaches to Sweden, and to promoting and fostering constructive and positive bilateral relations with it on all levels. I will work wholeheartedly and tirelessly, conducting the affairs of this mission in a manner aimed at advancing our mutual interests on the bilateral and multilateral levels, which are based on our deep-seated historical ties and our mutual respect for International Law, while raising government and public awareness of Palestinian history, society and current political realities.

I am looking forward to working with my Colleagues from the Diplomatic Corps, the competent authorities of Sweden and all of my team members so as to consolidate and empower the already existing relations between the State of Palestine and the Kingdom of Sweden.

Moreover, I am keen on communicating with the Palestinian Community in Sweden on all levels, hoping that all Palestinians will achieve the Right of Return to a free Palestine, our homeland.

This website will be playing a significant role in providing the Palestinian Community with the needed updated consular services.

I take this opportunity to express my utmost and sincerest appreciation for the hard work of my predecessors, who paved the way for a better future in the relations between both countries.

My colleagues and I will be sparing no effort to represent our country, people, leadership and President in the most adequate way possible, moving forward with clear determination in order to serve the enhancement of our mutual interests.

-Ambassador, Rula Almhaissen-
