Diplomacy by contest. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine admitted to the shortage of ambassadors

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine has announced for the first time in history an open competition for the position of ambassadors of this country, and literally any Ukrainian citizen will be able to apply. This was announced by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba himself in his blog.

According to him, the Foreign Ministry is experiencing a personnel shortage today, while the pace of "diplomatic expansion" is growing, and first of all, in Africa, there are still no ambassadors in about twenty countries of this continent.

Meanwhile, a corresponding page has already appeared on the Ministry's website, which promises that the HR service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine will contact the best candidates. The main focus is now on African countries, so applying for them automatically increases the chances of the applicant. In addition, there is an important addition in the ad, judging by which, subject to equal professional indicators, the agency will give its preference to women.
