Mahama lauds strong Ghana-Germany partnership

President John Dramani Mahama has bid farewell to the outgoing German Ambassador to Ghana, Daniel Krull, during a meeting at the Credentials Hall within the Presidency.
The courtesy visit marked the conclusion of Ambassador Krull's four-year term of duty, which President Mahama described as highly productive.
President Mahama reiterated Ghana's commitment to building on the strong foundation of bilateral relations between the two countries.
He emphasised the potential for deepened cooperation, particularly in the critical areas of economic development and security.
The President specifically commended Germany for its consistent support towards enhancing Ghana's security architecture, citing significant contributions to the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre (KAIPTC) and capacity-building initiatives for security personnel.
Addressing the evolving security landscape in the sub-region, President Mahama highlighted the growing threat posed by extreme terrorism, especially prevalent in the Sahel.
He expressed Ghana's readiness to work closely with Germany on targeted capacity training programmes aimed at bolstering regional efforts to combat this menace.
Touching upon the complex issue of irregular migration, President Mahama outlined Ghana's collaborative efforts with international partners, including the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) and the European Union (EU).
He stressed the importance of creating sustainable local opportunities for young people to mitigate the risks associated with perilous journeys across the Sahara and the Mediterranean.
President Mahama conveyed Ghana's deep appreciation for Ambassador Krul's service.
"We appreciate you. You're a friend of Ghana. And you're welcome to visit any time you miss Ghana.
You're welcome to visit. And I wish you all the best in your future endeavours."
