Accra, Nov. 30, - Dutch Prime Minister Mr Mark Rutte arrived
in Accra Wednesday night to begin a two-day State to Ghana.
He was met on arrival by Vice
President Dr Mahamudu Bawamia at the Jubilee Lounge at the Kotoka International
Airport.
This is the first time a Dutch
leader has visited Ghana.
His presence in Ghana is expected
to bolster relations and bilateral ties existing between Ghana and the
Netherlands.
Mr Rutte's visit precedes that of
the French President, Emmanuel Macron, who is expected in Ghana on Thursday.
Both leaders attended the 5th
AU-EU Summit in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire, at which both Continents seek to define
and strengthen relation for their mutual benefit.
President Nana Addo Dankwa
Akufo-Addo who also attended the Summit is expected back in Ghana today.
He would meet with both Mr Rutte
and Mr Macon at the Presidency, hold talks with them centred on trade and
investment and later host them both to lunch.
Whilst in Ghana, Mr Rutte would
interact with the Ghanaian business community and visit Dutch businesses in the
country.
