S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Brazil will have new ambassadors in the Middle East and North Africa starting this month. According to the Foreign Ministry, the change is not part of scheduled reorganisation in the region, but the result of replacement of processionals transferred to new jobs. This is the case, for example, with ambassador Ces\u00e1rio Melantonio Neto, aged 63, who leaves Cairo to become the extraordinary ambassador of Brazil to the Middle East, Iran and Turkey. He will be based in Brazilian capital Bras\u00edlia.<\/p>\n
In his place, the ambassador to the Egyptian capital will be Marco Antonio Diniz Brand\u00e3o, who served in New Delhi, India, and Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. Brand\u00e3o has also headed the embassy in Bangkok, Thailand, where he was also responsible for the embassies of Vientiane, in Laos, and Phnom Penh, in Cambodia.<\/p>\n
Renate Stille, aged 67, who has already been the ambassador of Brazil to Washington, New Zealand, and Yerevan, Armenia, should replace Fernando Marroni de Abreu in Amman. The new Brazilian ambassador to Baghdad, Anuar Nahes, aged 52, who was in Doha, Qatar, will also be working from Amman.<\/p>\n
Nahes will stay in Jordan until he can finally move to Baghdad. Brazil is reopening the embassy in the Iraqi capital, closed for two decades. According to the Itamaraty, Nahes will remain in Amman until the process for reopening the embassy in Baghdad is completed. The post in Doha is going to be occupied by ambassador Hildebrando Tadeu Valadares, aged 66, who has already served in Bucharest, Romania, and S\u00e3o Jos\u00e9, in Costa Rica.<\/p>\n
According to the Itamaraty, Valadares took over the post in Doha on Tuesday (03), and Melantonio should start his work as the extraordinary ambassador in the near future. Nahes should be inaugurated in the second half of January. Renate and Brand\u00e3o should be at their new posts within the first half of this year.<\/p>\n
