H.E. Olivier Baldauff accredited to Finland

On 29 October 2026, Luxembourg’s new Ambassador to Finland, Olivier Baldauff, presented his credentials to the President of the Republic of Finland Alexander Stubb during a formal accreditation ceremony at the Presidential Palace in Helsinki. Four other non resident Ambassadors presented their credentials to the President that day: Yemen, Ecuador, Tanzania and Botswana. 
 

Luxembourg and Finland share longstanding cultural ties, strengthened by their commitment to democracy and international cooperation. Both countries have common interests in many foreign policy areas, such as human rights and equality issues, climate targets and the rule of law. Luxembourg and Finland also share similar objectives and values, such as deepening of the internal market and closer cooperation in the EU’s common foreign and security policy. The ceremony thus not only marks the beginning of Ambassador Baldauff’s mission but also highlights the enduring friendship between the two countries.

With his mission now formally underway, Ambassador Baldauff looks forward to strengthening Luxembourg’s engagement in Finland and deepening cooperation across politics, innovation, culture and the broader Nordic region. His work will focus on fostering bilateral ties, supporting Luxembourgish cultural visibility, and advancing collaboration in areas of shared interest.
