Randolf De Battista to be Malta’s Ambassador to Geneva

Randolf De Battista is to become Malta’s Ambassador in Geneva, shortly after quitting as CEO of the Labour Party.

The news was broken by Prime Minister Robert Abela as he left the Labour Party’s general conference on Friday evening.

Abela said those who will no longer occupy a role in the Labour Party still have something to give, either to the party or the government.

“On the CEO of the Labour Party (De Battista) I can confirm he will take up the role of ambassador to Geneva,” he said.

Geneva, in Switzerland, serves as the European headquarters of the United Nations and also hosts several UN institutions.
