President Adama Barrow received the outgoing European Union Ambassador to The Gambia Attila Lajos at the State House in Banjul on Monday as the top diplomat’s time in the country expires.
Mr LaJos was at the State House to bid farewell to the Gambian President, State House said on Monday.
Talking to the media, the Ambassador said “The Gambia’s transition ran a long way,” adding “it was remarkable that The Gambia has decided on a democratic change that the EU wanted to support since the beginning,” according to State House.
He, however, stated that “transition is difficult as it is anywhere in the world but The Gambia stays on the path of democratic transformation,” State House said.
Ambassador Lajos pledged that the European Union will support the country to complete its transition as a reliable partner, State House said.
