Full Story:
The Principality of Monaco has established diplomatic relations with the Commonwealth of the Bahamas, an English-speaking archipelago consisting of 700 islands near Florida. This marks the 158th state with which Monaco has established diplomatic relations. The announcement came after a joint statement was signed by the representatives of both states at the United Nations in New York. The Bahamas, a member of the United Nations since 1973, has been significantly affected by the impacts of climate change, particularly during hurricane season. The two countries will continue to collaborate closely on sustainable development, with a focus on ocean protection and the promotion of sports values.
