This is the new US ambassador to Kosovo (Video)

The U.S. Embassy on its website has published a video showing the biography of the new ambassador.

Embassy Posting:

Hi, I'm Philip Costnet.

Fifteen years ago I served in the US diplomatic mission in Pristina.

Now I have the honor of returning as ambassador to help strengthen close friendship between our two wonderful states.

My wife, Allison, and I expect to explore the country and create new friends from all communities.

We want to hear your ideas about how Kosovo and America can work together in many areas: business, rule of law, security, education, and more.

During our stay here Allison and I also hope to discuss the experience of living in a multiethnic, multicultural society, and religious diversity something that is common to our two countries.

Diversity can enrich us culturally and inspire innovative solutions to national problems.

And I believe that communities and individuals should sincerely consider their past to build a bright future together.

No one understood this better than American civil rights activist Ida Wells, whose words are marked on the wall of the National Museum of Culture and African-American History in Washington, D.C.: “The way to correct mistakes is to light the light of truth over”.

I hope I see you soon! Thanks for looking.

Thank you.
