Washington, DC—On June 27, 2016, WFPG held a small farewell reception for Ambassador Claudia Fritsche to thank her for her many years of dedicated mentorship and service. During her twelve years in Washington as Ambassador of Liechtenstein to the US and her fourteen years in New York as Liechtenstein’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Fritsche was always an avid supporter of women's leadership and an active member of the WFPG.
