  • Ecuador's ambassador to Belgium, Andrea González, will also represent the Andean nation to the European Union and Luxembourg.
  • The appointment, detailed in decrees by President Daniel Noboa, transfers responsibilities previously held by Ambassador Danilo Aliaga.
  • González, a former presidential candidate, assumes these new roles after receiving approval from Luxembourg and the European External Action Service.

Ecuador's Ambassador to Belgium, Andrea González, is set to expand her diplomatic portfolio, taking on the additional roles of representative to the European Union and Luxembourg. The appointments were formalized through two executive decrees issued by President Daniel Noboa.

González, who previously sought the presidency and was a running mate to the assassinated Fernando Villavicencio, will also represent Ecuador to the European Atomic Energy Community. These positions were held until December 2025 by Ambassador Danilo Aliaga, though González had already replaced him as ambassador to Belgium.

The Gran Duchy of Luxembourg and the Protocol Division of the European External Action Service had previously communicated their approval for González to assume ambassadorial functions in Luxembourg in June. Her expanded role signifies a deepening of Ecuador's diplomatic engagement with key European institutions.
