05月14日 / 14 May
5月14日，大使參加了 "歐洲日"的慶祝活動。歐盟成員國在一個展覽會上各得到一個攤位，在那裏他們可以宣傳自己的文化。比利時的展台不僅有華夫餅、巧克力和比利時的圖片，而且還以比利時在漫畫書、藝術和設計方面的聲譽爲靈感舉辦了非常受歡迎的繪畫比賽。該展台獲得了巨大的成功!
On 14 May, the ambassador joined the celebrations of “Europe Day”. The European Union member states each received a stand at a fair where they could promote their culture. The Belgian stand not only had waffles, chocolates, and images of Belgium, but it also hosted a very popular drawing contest based on Belgium’s reputation for comic books, art, and design. The stand was a big success!
05月15-16日 / 15-16 May
在5月15日和16日之間，大使與他的歐盟大使同事們一起也會見了蒙古當局和組織。
Between 15 and 16 May, the ambassador joined his fellow European Union ambassadors who also travelled to Ulaanbaatar on a program to meet Mongolian authorities and organizations.
在烏蘭巴托短暫而繁忙的逗留讓大使加強了與蒙古的友好關系，並仔細聆聽了當地比利時社區的故事和期望。
The short but busy stay in Ulaanbaatar allowed the ambassador to strengthen friendly ties with Mongolia and to closely listen to the stories and expectations of the local Belgian community.
