New Madrid "Embassy"

Wed 22/08/07 - Flanders is to open a new diplomatic office in Madrid.
The office, a Flemish embassy in all but name, is the eleventh of its
kind in the world.
The Madrid office will be headed by a Flemish diplomat, who will
represent the Flemish Government in Spain.

The daily De Standaard reports that it's Flemish International
Relations Minister Geert Bourgeois (Nationalist), who has taken the
initiative for the new diplomatic mission.

At present there are nine Flemish diplomatic representatives en poste
abroad.

A tenth will take up office in the Polish capital Warsaw in October.

Flanders is among a score of European regions that has opened
representations across the EU and in Brussels.

450,000 euros has now been released to set up the Madrid Office.

When it is up and running it should cost around 250,000 euros a year.

Offices in London and Berlin are being expanded too.
