Igballe Rogova, KWN and Representatives of Civil Society Met with US Envoy, Gabriel Escobar

On 12 December, KWN’s Executive Director Igballe Rogova attended a meeting with the US Special Envoy for the Western Balkans, Gabriel Escobar and the US Ambassador to Kosovo, Jeffrey Hovenier with some representatives of civil society.

“Deputy Assistant Secretary Escobar joined me for great discussions today with diverse civil society representatives from across Kosovo.

KWN thanks and appreciates the U.S. Department of State for continuing the conversation and consulting WCSOs and activists.
