Ambassadors are an important aspect of the Ministry of International Affairs’ diplomatic team, representing the Hokorian State to foreign nations. Some foreign nations also have their own Ambassadors to the Hokorian State.
How Ambassadors are appointed
Typically, the Government will propose a person to be the Ambassador of the Hokorian State to a nation. This proposition is then either accepted or denied by the Koru.
Once accepted, the Proposed Ambassador is given a letter of credence (diplomatic credentials) and needs to present these to the nation’s Head of State. When the foreign nation’s Head of State accepts their letter of credence, the Proposed Ambassador becomes the official Ambassador.
How Foreign Ambassadors are accepted
Similarly, Foreign Ambassadors must present the Koru with a letter of credence (diplomatic credentials) before they are considered the official Ambassador to the Hokorian State.
Current Ambassadors
Ambassadors lead a ‘Representation’ of the Hokorian State to a foreign nation. Representations are similar to offices, though they will typically only consist of the Ambassador. A list of all Representations of the Hokorian State can be found in the Ministry of International Affairs’ directory.
