Well as we are members of those organisations and we inherently respect their right to have Ambassadors then they are obviously fine.
<EU mode>
We were going to offer the Ambassador full status but we found some ham in his sandwiches, and as you know rules are rules.
Not to be coercive but maybe if the EU changed its long term plans so we didn't have to compete on an even playing field we could change our mind?
</EU mode>
Maybe we could ask the Mafia to appoint an ambassador?
Can we recognise the Catalan Ambassador?Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Well he can infraction off home for a start then: Tim Barrow - Wikipedia
When the United Kingdom left the EU on 31 January 2020, Barrow became British Ambassador to the European Union.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

If the UK Government refuses to acknowledge the EU Ambassador to the UK because the EU is not a sovereign state but DOES recognise that Ambassadors from EU Member states are sent from Sovereign Nations then why was it suggested that the UK had lost its sovereignty when we were EU members and we had to leave the EU to gain our Sovereignty back?“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

One would have thought it would be more logical for Brexiteers to recognise EU ambassador but refuse to recognise all member states ambassadors on the basis that EUSSR is an Evil State where Members got no rights.Comment
