With deep sorrow, the EU-LAC International Foundation announces the passing of our President, José Antonio García Belaunde — an exemplary diplomat and exceptional human being, whose leadership and life’s work profoundly shaped our institution.
During his tenure, Ambassador García Belaunde stood out for his tireless commitment to strengthening ties between Latin America, the Caribbean and the European Union. His strategic vision, intellectual generosity, and human warmth leave behind an enduring legacy that we will honour with respect and gratitude.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones during this time of mourning. His mark will remain alive in our mission and in each of us who form part of the Foundation.
