Dear friends,

Having arrived in the United Kingdom almost five years ago, my time in London has now reached its conclusion.

This tenure was not the easiest one, but it was interesting and dynamic. As diplomats, we were facing one of the most challenging period in British history related to Brexit and rethinking of the future UK foreign policy. We had to adjust ourselves to new reality and work on elaborating new philosophy of our bilateral relations with the United Kingdom. I am sure that we have built a good foundation for our successors.

This country has brought me many exceptional acquaintances and new friends who will remain in my life forever. I am extremely grateful to our British partners, Ukrainian community in Great Britain, and friends from the diplomatic corps in London who have always been ready to provide their support and guidance both in word and deed. You were great to work with and you have given me the fondest memories to relive with. Wish you all the best for your future!

Sincerely,

Natalia Galibarenko
