Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade Promotion Carmelo Abela represents Malta at the Centenary of the 1918 Armistice.

​Over sixty heads of government are in Paris for the weekend to participate in this event. Malta played a crucial part in the two big wars during the past century and Minister Abela’s presence here is also a respectful gesture towards our forefathers. The Armistice events showcased an impressive  and touching ceremony at the Arc de Triomphe, where the President of France Emmanuel Macron addressed all delegations. Guests of honour were later hosted for a luncheon at the Elysee Palace
