Thank you to @OSCE_Skopje staff for all your work on comprehensive security including in public safety, community outreach and on the human dimension.
Great to visit you at your offices in Skopje today and to hear from civil society representatives.
Peaceful assembly is a core OSCE principle. Sadly, in last days individuals & small groups have abused this right to perpetrate violence. Ahead of tonight’s protest @OSCE_Skopje calls on all sides to show restraint and avoid acts or threats of violence.
Sometimes we tend to look for problems with our neighbours. But the real adversary is not there. The real adversary is often common – corruption – and in this regard we need to work together.

"Attacks against #journalists are attacks against democracy. This is why our Mission is calling on all actors to help create a safe environment for journalists. Let us all stand up for the safety of journalists!” @KojaClemens , Head of @OSCE_Skopje#wpfd#WorldPressFreedomDay
Krijimi / amplifikimi i dezinformimit u bë më i lehtë me përparimet teknologjike. Kjo është padyshim e vërtetë kur bëhet fjalë për lajme të rreme për COVID-19 që po përhapen këto ditë. #Edukimi#mediatik rikujton se raportimi profesional tani ka rëndësi më shumë se kurdoherë.

Last year, under OSCE_Skopje auspices, state and non-state actors established a Network against #HateSpeech in #media. "We see the Network as an important platform to encourage best practices in developing alternative and counter-narratives in the media," said Amb. @KojaClemens
One of phenomena that remain largely unaddressed is #HateSpeech in #media. However, any state or non-state measures to curb such phenomenon must take into consideration right to freedom of expression, said Amb. @KojaClemens at press conf. organized in co-op. with MoIA and #CMEM
We are very proud that, together with @osce_odihr and @NDI North Macedonia, our Mission supported the @SobranieRSM in developing a Plan of Activities on #Gender Sensitivity 2020-2021, presented today. We stay committed to support its implementation in the next two years.
Concerned about the gruesome online threats against journalists Meri Jordanovska and Iska Koroveshovska in #NorthMacedonia. Safety of all journalists, on- & offline, is paramount for media freedom. Glad that investigations are underway to bring the perpetrator to justice. #SOFJO
