MALTA AND SWITZERLAND: DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS Written by Eric Muhia, post graduate of international studies and diplomacy

The bilateral relations between Switzerland and Malta are good and are becoming closer.

Malta’s strategic location in the Mediterranean makes it a bridge between Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.

Switzerland and Malta have a bilateral framework agreement as part of Switzerland’s second contribution to selected EU member states, which sets out the thematic priorities for collaboration. The Sovereign Order of Malta, a separate entity, has diplomatic activities closely linked to its humanitarian mission and has official relations with Switzerland, including a permanent mission in Geneva. This close relationship allows for regular exchanges and cooperation between the two countries in various areas, such as trade, culture, and humanitarian efforts.

Additionally, Switzerland and Malta often work together within international organisations to address common challenges and promote regional peace and stability.

History of diplomatic relations between Switzerland and Malta Shortly after Malta gained its independence in 1964, the Swiss ambassador in Rome was accredited by the Maltese government, marking the beginning of diplomatic relations between Switzerland and Malta.

GLOBAL MINDSET

The diplomatic relations between Malta and the rest of the world, including Switzerland, have evolved since Malta sought relations with other countries, including those in Eastern Europe and the non-aligned countries, since 1971. For instance, in 1972, Malta established diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union, leading to the signing of various bilateral agreements and increased trade between the two nations. This example highlights Malta’s proactive approach to expanding its diplomatic ties beyond traditional Western allies, showcasing its efforts to foster relationships with countries outside its geographical proximity.

Additionally, Switzerland and Malta cooperate with various international organisations, such as the United Nations, to address global challenges and promote peace and stability.

For example, Switzerland and Malta collaborate on promoting their historical heritage through joint exhibitions and cultural events. On one such occasion, they organise a travelling exhibit showcasing the architectural marvels of Swiss chalets and Maltese palazzos, allowing visitors to appreciate the distinct cultural aspects of both countries. This collaboration strengthens their diplomatic relations and enhances cultural understanding between the two nations.

Current Diplomatic agreements between Switzerland and Malta

Key aspects of diplomatic relations

The current diplomatic agreements between Switzerland and Malta include the Bilateral Framework Agreement, part of Switzerland’s second contribution to selected EU member states. This agreement sets out the thematic priorities for collaboration. In addition, the Sovereign Order of Malta, a separate entity, has diplomatic relations with Switzerland.

Furthermore, trade between Switzerland and Malta is modest, mainly involving the machinery, chemicals, and pharmaceutical industries. Switzerland and Malta also have a strong focus on cultural exchanges and tourism. Both countries recognise the importance of promoting their rich historical heritage and natural beauty to attract visitors worldwide.

Diplo is an essential component of bilateral relations, a foundation established jointly in 2002 and co-financed by Switzerland that focuses on building political capacity in small states and developing countries. Diplo emerged from a project introducing information and communication technology (ICT) tools to diplomacy, initiated in 1992 at the Mediterranean Academy of Diplomatic Studies in Malta. Diplo also conducts research and analysis on the evolving landscape of diplomacy in the digital age and develops innovative digital tools for diplomacy and emerging technologies. In addition to its focus on political capacity building and using ICT tools in diplomacy, Diplo plays a crucial role in promoting digital literacy and inclusivity in diplomatic practices.

GLOBAL MINDSET

NEW YEAR: “DECALOGUE” OF COEXISTENCE Written by Wilfredo Perez

As 2024 begins, I want to share a simple, didactic and convenient “decalogue” that could help us project an unequivocal and kind stance in moments of undeniable tensions and disagreements due to the events that have afflicted humanity for almost two years.

There are also adversities and sufferings which increase our alterations, for which we have avoided being prepared.

Hence, this is the relevance of a “decalogue” that I suggest paying attention to and trying to apply, thinking about ourselves and the well-being of those we interact with. As a substantial component of our subsistence, learning to care about the environment enlarges the spirit and nourishes the interpersonal bond. Experience, affability, consideration and courtesy will make us superior individuals. Below are my ten recommendations.

10

First, tolerance: an attitude of consideration for the opinions, ideas or attitudes of others despite the discrepancy. It is a central element in achieving virtuous sociability. The illustrator Mahatma Gandhi said: “I don’t like the word tolerance, but I can’t find a better one. “Love pushes us to have the same respect for the faith of others that we have for our own.”

Second, empathy: the ability to understand the thoughts and emotions of others; That is, putting yourself in the other person’s shoes and sharing your feelings. It is not necessary to go through the same experiences or agree to interpret those around us; It is a process of understanding, acceptance and prudence.

ETIQUETTE

GLOBAL MINDSET

Third is emotional intelligence: willingness to perceive, express, and manage excitement.

Its internalisation makes the difference between behaving acceptably and being out of place in specific contexts. It involves recognising one’s impressions and facilitates problem-solving. It has irrefutable usefulness when we go through high rates of unrest.

Seventh, solidarity: one of the most transcendent principles that arouse our sensitivity and reaction to the suffering of others. Encourages empathy and increases self-esteem and achievement standards. It makes it possible to forge a bond of cohesion in a society severely affected by indolence, apathy and individualism.

Fourth, values are norms that guide behaviour, a kind of inspiring “lighthouse” of the right path we must take. In this sense, they constitute the determining framework of our positive actions. Its application requires categorical integrity, perseverance and coherence. They ensure our correct conduct in all fields of human activity.

Eighth, culture is essential in our evolution as lucid beings capable of conceiving the world. It encourages critical analysis, promotes remarkable wisdom, and increases social skills and outstanding understanding of human diversity. It is an inexhaustible and humbling source of enrichment.

Fifth, common sense: logical knowledge accumulated throughout life experience and whose validity is accepted by us. It is a kind of “seventh sense” capable of warning us about what is good or bad and how to act and reasonably judge everyday situations.

Sixth, belonging: identifies and integrates groups or collectivities to assume a set of concerns, ideals and aspirations. It allows us to grow and commit to issues of our habitat.

It will encourage our adhesion and participation with the community and, likewise, the development of actions aimed at the public good. Demonstrates our citizen convictions.

Ninth, education: the process in which we have been formed – in our various stages – and the characteristics of how we behave and relate. It expresses the dimension of our ability to coexist and opens new doors in work, personal relationships, etc.

Tenth, assertive communication: revealing our thoughts, feelings and beliefs with empathetic criteria, firmness and persuasion. It implies giving up any manifestation of submission and aggressiveness. It is a quality that demonstrates excellent soft skills, solid education, and reasonable security and contributes to excellent interpersonal relationships.

BUSINESS DIPLOMACY IN SHAPING INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS Written by Eric Muhia, post graduate of international studies and diplomacy

The Synergy of Cheque Book Diplomacy and Business Diplomacy in Shaping International Relations.

Chequebook diplomacy is a form of diplomacy where a country uses its financial resources to gain influence or achieve its foreign policy objectives. It involves providing financial aid, investments, or loans to other countries in exchange for political support or favourable treatment. On the other hand, business diplomacy refers to using economic and commercial activities to foster diplomatic relations and achieve foreign policy goals. It involves leveraging trade agreements, investment opportunities, and business partnerships to strengthen ties between countries and promote mutual interests.

These diplomatic approaches are essential in international relations as they provide alternative avenues for countries to engage with each other beyond traditional political and military channels.

Chequebook diplomacy allows nations to pursue their interests and influence global affairs through economic means, fostering cooperation and stability. On the other hand, business diplomacy facilitates building trust and understanding between nations through mutually beneficial economic exchanges, ultimately contributing to peaceful and prosperous international relations.

diplomacy

GLOBAL MINDSET

For example, a country may provide economic aid to developing nations in exchange for support at the United Nations or other international forums. This can help secure voting blocs and advance the country’s diplomatic agenda. Additionally, business diplomacy can be seen in multinational companies investing in emerging markets to expand their operations and contribute to the host country’s socioeconomic development, leading to enhanced diplomatic relations between nations.

Overview Countries and businesses use these strategies to strengthen their global influence and achieve political and economic objectives.

Countries can form partnerships with other nations by engaging in diplomatic negotiations and alliances, enabling them to collectively address global challenges and exert more significant influence on international decision-making processes.

Similarly, businesses employ these strategies to establish strong relationships with foreign governments, fostering a favourable business environment for smooth operations and access to new markets. This mutually beneficial cooperation ultimately contributes to the overall diplomatic relations between nations and promotes stability in the global economy. By working together, governments and businesses can pool their resources and expertise to tackle climate change, terrorism, and economic inequality.

This collaboration strengthens diplomatic ties and promotes stability by addressing the root causes of conflicts and promoting sustainable development. Furthermore, it allows for sharing best practices and innovations, leading to improved standards of living and increased prosperity for all involved. Ultimately, these efforts towards cooperation and diplomacy enhance the overall well-being of nations and individuals worldwide.

Examples of countries engaging in chequebook diplomacy include China and Taiwan. Taiwan’s diplomatic recognition is a contentious issue between China and Taiwan. Taiwan is a selfgoverning island that China considers a breakaway province that must be reunited with the mainland. Taiwan has diplomatic relations with only 15 countries worldwide, primarily small and developing nations in Africa, Latin America and the Pacific. Taiwan has used chequebook diplomacy to maintain or win diplomatic recognition from these countries by offering them economic aid, investment, scholarships, medical assistance, and other incentives. Taiwan’s chequebook diplomacy is seen as a way to assert its sovereignty and legitimacy and resist China’s pressure and isolation. This approach has allowed Taiwan to establish a network of allies supporting its global position. By aiding and incentivising, Taiwan has built strong relationships with these nations, which in turn helps strengthen its international standing. Additionally, this strategy serves as a means for Taiwan to counterbalance China’s efforts to isolate it and assert its independence diplomatically.

Public Relations is Key to Success ProtocolToday has found a strategic partner in euromarcom public relations.

Public perception is more important today than ever before. Online and social media have created an information overload that hardly anyone can keep up with. It is becoming increasingly difficult for organizations and companies to penetrate this jungle of information with their own core messages.

However, a high level of awareness and trust among the target group is an indispensable asset - regardless of the industry, countries and markets in which you operate.

National and global PR

With this in mind, ProtocolToday has entered into a partnership with European Marketing Communications (euromarcom), a very special kind of public relations agency. euromarcom has been the PR agency of choice for the global Diplomatic Council since its inception over twelve years ago. The Diplomatic Council is a globally active think tank with consultative status to the United Nations. This UN Consultative Status is the highest recognition an organization can have. With this worldwide network, euromrcom public relations can achieve unique successes for its clients like no other PR agency.

The core of euromarcom's business involves collaborating with the media. To this end, the client's core messages are translated into a strategic PR campaign and communicated to the appropriate target group via the media. The agency maintains a database with more than 10,000 media contacts worldwide. Since its foundation over 40 years ago, the agency has maintained personal contact with many key media, which are used for the benefit of clients.

euromarcom pr is headquartered in Germany.

The agency is, therefore, particularly suitable for companies and organizations that want to strengthen their presence in this heartland of Europe. But Euromarcom also works internationally: many clients use the agency to become better known throughout Europe, Asia, or North America. Global PR can be controlled with a single point of contact if required.

GLOBAL MINDSET PR in the Digital Age

euromarcom's way of working for you

In order to use PR effectively in the digital age, it is important to: Create a strong online presence: A company's website, social media pages, and other online content should be welldesigned and informative.

Be active on social media: Social media is a great way to connect with customers and other stakeholders.

Generate compelling content: Content should be interesting, informative, and relevant to the target audience.

Build relationships with journalists: Journalists are a key source of media coverage. euromarcom is one of the top players in all four areas.

This is the way to make euromarcom public relations work for your benefit:

Many reasons to hire a PR agency The reasons for hiring a PR agency can be many and varied. The most common reasons are strengthening sales, opening up new markets and countries, increasing brand awareness, improving image, attracting investors, finding qualified personnel, increasing the company value, selling a company or interest in taking over a company.

A small excerpt from the client list includes Lufthansa, Chrono24 (“The world’s watch market”), DuBois, Deutsche Telekom, eBay, Stanford University, Philips, Facebook, Samsung, Zeiss, The Luxury Network, and, of course, the Diplomatic Council, as well as many other smaller and medium-sized enterprises and startups. The agency is also frequently commissioned by government organizations and NGOs.
