(Seychelles News Agency) - As a small island developing state (SID) of 115 islands in the western Indian Ocean with a population of approximately 100,000, Seychelles' foreign policy is limited to the number of embassies it has abroad.

However, this country is greatly determined to have its voice heard on the world stage and is always at the forefront of international discussions to fight climate change, promote maritime security and champion the Blue Economy as the main pillars of its bilateral and multilateral engagement.

Recently, Seychelles' Department of Foreign Affairs announced the rotation plan and new appointments of the heads of Seychelles' diplomatic missions abroad.

SNA introduces the 8 ambassadors representing Seychelles overseas including contact information.

Newly appointed Racombo will be posted to the Seychelles Embassy in Brussels, and will also cover the European Union.
