The President noted that Ghana values its diplomatic partnerships and remains committed to fostering stronger bilateral ties that will advance economic growth and development.
He assured the ambassadors of his government's readiness to work closely with their respective countries to promote shared prosperity and strengthen people-to-people relations.
