Mccully To Welcome Canadian Counterpart
Foreign Affairs Minister Murray McCully will host his Canadian counterpart, Foreign Minister John Baird, in Wellington today.
“Canada is one of our oldest and
most established friends and partners. We have worked
closely together on a wide range of issues for many
years,” Mr McCully says.
“This visit comes as
Canada looks to further strengthen its diplomatic
connections with the Asia Pacific region, making it an
excellent opportunity to discuss expanding our bilateral and
regional cooperation.
“We always welcome an
opportunity to discuss international issues with a bedrock
partner such as Canada.”
Mr Baird will also meet a
number of other ministers and attend Parliament’s question
time.
