Ambassador of France, he has spent most of his career in European affairs. For more than ten years, he held the position of Ambassador, Permanent Representative of France to the European Union, in Brussels, until the end of the year 2017.

Following his 40-year career as a diplomat, during which he held the most important positions within the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs (as the Minister's Chief of Staff, and later as Secretary General), Pierre Sellal wanted to contribute his expertise in European, international and strategic environment to the activities of August Debouzy.
