The Ambassador of Sweden to Uruguay (known formally as the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Sweden to the Oriental Republic of Uruguay) is the official representative of the government of Sweden to the president of Uruguay and government of Uruguay.

History

[edit]

In July 1949, the King in Council appointed councillor Carl-Herbert Borgenstierna [sv] at the Swedish legation in Buenos Aires to serve as chargé d'affaires en pied in Montevideo.[1] Borgenstierna flyttade i början av november samma åt till Montevideo för att öppna en svensk legation.[2]



Överenskommelse har träffats mellan Sveriges och Uruguays regeringar om ömsesidigt upphöjande av respektive länders legationer till ambassader. I anslutning härtill har till Sveriges ambassadör i Montevideo utnämnts sändebudet där Gösta Hedengren.[3]

Den svenska ambassaden i Montevideo flyttar i dagarna in i nya lokaler. Man har tidigare huserat inne i stadens centrum i ett kontor som varit föga representativt. Nu kan ambassadör Åke A. Jonsson och kanslisten Tore Gannholm spika upp nya tavlor i de eleganta ambassadkvarteren bara ett kvarter från playan.[4]

Budgetdepartementet har beordrat UD att skära ned åtta miljoner på sina utgifter. Bland annat genom att minska svenska utlandsrepresentationen. Som läget är nu, enligt vad SvD inhämtat från flera olika källor, är följande i farozonen: ambassaden i Montevideo, generalkonsulatet i San Fransisco och konsulaten i Genua och Sydney.[5]

Regeringen har aviserat att en utlandsmyndighet ska stängas under budgetåret 1991/92 och ytterligare 5-6 läggas ned under den närmaste treårsperioden för att i stället ersättas med annan form av svensk närvaro. Förutom ambassaden i Vatikanen planerar regeringen också, enligt vad SvD erfar, att lägga ned beskickningarna i Zaires huvudstad Kinshasa och Uruguays huvudstad Montevideo.[6]

En lång rad ambassader och konsulat läggs ner. Regeringen ger besked om vilka statsbudgeten som presenteras den 11 januari nästa år. Orsaken är de hårda besparingarna på 1000 miljoner kronor som UD tvingas till i dessa kristider. Två ambassader, den i Abu Dhabi i Förenade Arabemiraten och den i Montevideo, Uruguay, stängd helt. På platserna arbetar fyra svenska UD-anställda.[7]
