Appointment Of Ambassadors And Consul-General

Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade

Today I announce the appointment of three highly qualified individuals to lead Australian posts in Brussels, Belgrade and Lae.

I am pleased to announce the following appointments:

Australia's representatives overseas prosecute our national interests and through their diplomatic engagement help uphold the norms and rules that have underpinned decades of peace and prosperity.

General Campbell will also serve as the Ambassador to the European Union (EU), the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and Luxembourg. His experience as Chief of the Defence Force from 2018 until 2024 will help deepen Australia's peace and security cooperation with NATO, both in the Euro-Atlantic and the Indo-Pacific.

I thank the outgoing ambassadors and consul-general for their contributions.
