The former British Ambassador to France will take on his role as Her Majesty’s Ambassador to Italy from February 2022, the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office confirmed in a statement.
Llewellyn said that he was “honoured” to be appointed as Her Majesty’s Ambassador to Italy and San Marino and that he looks forward “to strengthening the close ties between our countries and to building on the excellent work of my predecessor”.
Italy’s new British Ambassador has reportedly been learning Italian for the past few months in preparation for his upcoming role.
The 56-year-old served as the British Ambassador to France from November 2016 to August 2021 and previously worked for the government in Bosnia and Hong Kong.
it would be good to see one of these people do something about tourism and home owners in Italy being able to stay more than 90 days without having to invest 500,000 to do so!! After the worst decision in English politics – Brexit.
