Sally Axworthy presented her Letters of Credence, accrediting her as Her Majesty’s Ambassador to the Holy See, to Pope Francis at the Vatican today.
After presenting her credentials to the Pope, Axworthy said: “It will be a great privilege to continue to build on the excellent relations between the United Kingdom and the Holy See, and the many core values that we share.
"Pope Francis is one of the most, if not the most, respected international leader. People pay attention to what he is saying and doing, and it is important that we engage with him and the global Holy See network”.
