Due to the Coronavirus protocols and the ongoing pandemic, the German Ambassador H.E. Anke Holstein was recently awarded the Plaque for Special Contribution to the Roma Community by the Network for Systemic and Sustainable Solutions. This plaque was awarded on the occasion of April 8, International Roma Day, as well as the 50th anniversary of the First World Congress of the IRU. The plaque was given by the Network Coordinator and also the current president of the IRU Zoran Dimov.
Ambassador Holstein thanked for this recognition and noted that Germany as a country will always strive to respect the rights of the Roma community both in our country and abroad. She also noted that as the German Ambassador to North Macedonia, it is important to bring the two countries and citizens closer and to support North Macedonia in the best possible way on its path to the European Union.
