The renowned Dutch newspaper, NRC Weekend, Saturday, November 16th, 2013, page 27, announces Diplomat Magazine as top news highlighting our publication amongst the most significant events of the year in the diplomatic milieu of the Netherlands.

We aim to promote the diffusion of diplomatic and international relations, including academic and social diplomatic issues.

_________________________________________________

This is how everything started in June 2013: https://diplomatmagazine.eu/2015/12/05/a-true-diplomatic-story/

Editorial, ambassadorial and academic articles are published Online on regular basis. They are the top five ambassadorial articles. “Diplomatic news” is a daily section. “Diplomatic pouch” together with our ambassadorial articles are published the first Sunday of the month. However, all other Online sections, like our “Breaking news”, “Upcoming events”  and our very successful “Recent events”  are updated on daily basis. With a lesser extension, some other sections can receive new inputs on weekly bases, such as our “Travel”, “Culture & events”, and our “Business” sections.

It is not a coincidence that Diplomat Magazine was born in June 2013. We paid special attention to make it happen the year of Investiture of His Majesty, King Willem-Alexander and during the centennial celebrations of the Carnegie Foundation, which we fully supported.

Moreover, since February 2015, Diplomat Magazine has added to its diplomatic repertoire a new high-level academic publication, namely, Border Crossing. It is a complimentary Online magazine that can be found on our top-right menu.

Diplomat Magazine is the conception of top Dutch ICT-designer professionals and the volunteer action from international relations researchers, the academia, foreign affairs experts, local NGOs, diplomatic ministers, selected Dutch voluntary journalists, professional photographers, Dutch and international lawyers, notaries, public servants, fine arts gurus, and last but not least, the honorary and kind-heatedly participation of ambassadors and  senior diplomats accredited to The Kingdom of the Netherlands and abroad. Diplomat Magazine was officially launched by heads of diplomatic missions from Canada, Vietnam, Bolivia, Japan and especially by Dr. Eugenio Matos Gomez, Minister Counselor(2009-2014) who also acted as Chargé d’affaires a.i. of the Dominican Republic Embassy in The Hague.
