Full Story:
On May 21, 2024, Monaco established diplomatic relations with the Republic of Nauru, the smallest republic in the world. This makes Nauru the 159th state with which Monaco has formalized such a relationship. The permanent representatives of Nauru and Monaco to the United Nations in New York met to formalize the bond.
Nauru, located in Oceania, is a small island state and a member of the United Nations since 1999. Due to its proximity to the equator, it is particularly affected by the impacts of climate change, such as heatwaves and rising sea levels.
During their meeting, the permanent representatives discussed various subjects of common interest, including the conservation and sustainable use of oceans, as well as the sharing of benefits for developing countries under the Agreement on the High Seas.
This development is significant as it further strengthens Monaco’s diplomatic ties with countries worldwide.
