Chapter 936: The Chief Visits Djibouti

As for how Luca acts, Muyang does not have a dead rule, because everything cannot be performed strictly according to the script, Muyang just gives the goal, as for how to do it, it is Luca's business.

Of course, Muyang can also contact Luca at any time, and even Luca can contact Muyang, as for Luca's safety, well, this is the last thing Muyang has to worry about.

The work of the embassy continues, and the Americans still do not relax their investigation into the two missile attacks, and the Chinese embassy, as one of the key suspects, is constantly being monitored by the Americans.

Mu Yang was a little annoyed, and really wanted to crush those flies to death directly.

But after thinking about it, I dispelled this idea, if something happened again, the Americans would definitely focus all their attention on him, and the gains outweighed the losses.

Just let those flies go for now.

Half a month later, the embassy received a telegram from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and then Minister Yang personally called Muyang.

Chief 1 will begin his second visit to Africa, this time to Tanzania. Nia, South Africa and the Republic of the Congo and Djibouti, with Djibouti being the last stop.

During this period, the summit held cooperation talks with President Odova, and participated in the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the opening of the Djibouti Free Trade Zone and the new port terminal. He also inspected the construction of China's military base in Djibouti.

It is one of the important tasks of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the embassy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to make arrangements for the reception of the head of the country's visit, although the visit plan was sent half a month in advance, but there is a lot of specific work and the time is not very sufficient.

It is the business of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to communicate with the Djibouti government and issue an official letter of visit, but as an embassy, it must report to the Djibouti government once and start discussing the specific reception matters with the other government.

To put it simply, if Prime Minister No. 1 visits and Djibouti President Odova does not greet him, it is a major diplomatic event, so it must be verified. Moreover, the specifications of the reception, the itinerary, the safety, the process of the ceremony, the time, etc., everything needs to be arranged.

Of course, in Djibouti, Muyang can guarantee that there will be absolutely no problems, Muyang and Odova communicated, and then Djibouti set up a state-level reception committee led by President Odova and headed by the chief secretary of the presidential office (equivalent to the secretary general of the presidential office), which consists of 7 groups, which correspond to and cooperate with each other with the internal institutions of the embassy.

Many of the receptions were designed by President Odova himself, who demanded the highest reception specifications in 20 years.

This is the first time that the No. 1 leader has come to Djibouti, and in addition to the normal high-standard reception etiquette, Djibouti will also prepare a traditional reception ceremony to make the whole reception process more national and more friendly.

The Djibouti government is responsible for these efforts, but the embassy needs to send people to follow up and coordinate to avoid loopholes.

On the fourth day after receiving the notice, the people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the General Office of the State Academy of Properties arrived in Djibouti, came in advance to arrange the leaders' itinerary, check the relevant matters, guide the reception work, and inform the country of the preparations here to avoid accidents during the visit, and then they will work as liaisons until the moment of the leadership of the plane.

The embassy should also take care of the visas for the head and the accompanying persons.

Some people can't help but ask: Is it true that when the No. 1 leader visits abroad, he is sometimes invited by other countries, and does he also have to apply for a visa?

The answer is, yes, a visa is required.

Before visiting a foreign country, you must obtain a passport and a visa for the country concerned. It is a matter of sovereignty that no State is allowed to enter or leave its territory by persons who do not hold valid passports and visas, except between countries that have agreements on mutual visa exemption. In many countries, foreign heads of state and their spouses who are invited to visit are exempt from passport checks and do not have to apply for entry and exit visas. This is a courtesy, but customarily the sending country still needs to obtain their own passports for them.

When it comes to the principle of sovereignty and etiquette, we cannot be careless.

Of course, these do not need to be done by the leaders themselves.

And not only the visas of the leaders, but also the accompanying leaders, translators, security personnel, service personnel, etc., all need to apply for visas.

The whole process, from the landing of the plane, to the airport greeting, the reception specifications, the arrangement of the entire reception process, the security of the chief, the process of holding the meeting, the accommodation, the itinerary of the next day, the whole process of participating in the ribbon-cutting ceremony and security issues, the response with the news media of various countries during the period, until the chief stepped on the plane back to China, all the details of the whole process have a strict plan, and it is important to make sure that every detail does not have any omission.

If there is a problem, it is a major diplomatic event, even an international event.

In the past half a month, every day has been busy, and Muyang, as the person directly in charge, pays attention to every detail to make this visit foolproof.

This is not flattery, it is not servility, this is his responsibility, as a Chinese, an ambassador.

On April 28, 2016, the special plane of the No. 1 leader landed slowly at the newly built Djibouti International Airport, the cabin door opened, and the figure of the chief and his wife appeared at the door of the cabin, stepping on the spiral staircase covered with red carpet and slowly walking down.

The Djibouti military band began to play a Chinese song, "We Walk on the Road", and Odowa and a group of government officials walked over, and the No. 1 leader and Odowa hugged him cordially.

This was followed by a handshake between the two sides.

Mu Yang was just behind the reception crowd, on this occasion, Mu Yang was not qualified to come forward to shake hands, he took the embassy staff and was responsible for the reception and coordination.

This is the first time Mu Yang has seen the No. 1 chief, and among the chief's entourage, Mu Yang also saw Minister Yang.

The Djibouti side was very well prepared, and the president, vice president, more than a dozen ministers, and commanders of the navy, army, and air force all came to greet them.

Amid military music, Commander No. 1 and Odova inspected the guard of honor of the three armed forces in Djibouti, and then boarded the motorcade to the presidential palace.

In the presidential palace, the chief minister and Odova had a cordial and friendly conversation, "Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Kyrgyzstan 37 years ago, the relations between the two countries have developed healthily and smoothly, and the bilateral practical cooperation has yielded fruitful results. China cherishes the traditional friendship between China and Kyrgyzstan and is willing to continue to work with Kyrgyzstan to strengthen friendly and mutually beneficial cooperation between the two countries in various fields and push China-Kyrgyzstan relations to a new level. ”

Odova thanked China for its assistance to Djibouti in economic construction and development, saying that this fully reflects the fraternal friendship between Djibouti and China, "China is an important cooperative partner of Djibouti, and Djibouti is willing to comprehensively strengthen friendly cooperation with China."
