The Netherlands and Seychelles will work closely on fighting cryptocurrency crimes and a mission from the northwestern European country is expected in the island nation this year, said the outgoing Dutch ambassador on Tuesday.

The outgoing Ambassador of the Netherlands to Seychelles, Maarten Brouwer, made the announcement to reporters after his farewell visit to President Wavel Ramkalawan at State House.

The expected mission from the Netherlands aims to"start talking about what is happening here in Seychelles and what we notice of it," he said."We have a clear interest in trying to fight what are global organisations to attack them by not only confiscating their drugs that come into the ports but also to undermine their financial structure," said the outgoing ambassador.

Maritime security and the passage of container ships in the Red Sea were also discussed during the meeting. He added that the Netherlands is the sixth shipping nation in the world and"quite a lot of the cargo that we export passes through the Red Sea."
