Excerpt from an ode to dear Federico Villegas
They say an institution is what describes you best.
I would say “a great champion” who puts us all to the test.
…
There will be felt a great absence from Nyon to Cologny,
But the biggest void of all will be felt here in Pregny…
Goodbye and ‘see you soon’ Federico Villegas - thank you for your commitment to international Geneva & your friendship with the #Caribbean & #Barbados

“Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak, it’s also what it takes to sit down and listen” (también Winston Churchill) Gracias y hasta luego a mi amigo y colega tan valiente Federico Villegas de Argentina en OMC y ONU (Ginebra) You will be much missed in this town
Gracias totales al extraordinario equipo de Argentina en OMC y ONU (Ginebra) que tuve el privilegio de dirigir estos años. Ha sido un honor y una enorme satisfacción representar con ustedes a la Argentina en Ginebra en un momento crítico de desafios para el mundo y para nuestro país.
Nothing better than a positive collective transformation with colleagues with the human quality and professionalism of Agustin Giustiniani Gracias por todo Agus!
