Rosalba Plasencia Garcia is the first Dominican student in the Caribbean region to graduate today with a Master’s degree in Political Science from the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, with her thesis on the Geopolitics of Kosovo.
Under the Political and Diplomatic Committee of the Self-Determination Movement Center in the USA, under the leadership of Subcommittee Coordinator Tim Jaha, who was present at the graduation ceremony, they have been engaged in assisting Ms. Garcia in finding important information about Kosovo.
Rosalba Plasencia, besides grappling with texts that do not exist in volumes in the Spanish language and are scarce in the Latin world, has also faced resistance from the academic staff who created obstacles for Rosalba so that she wouldn’t achieve the success she did today with the thesis she chose.
During the final years of her studies, Rosalba has had continuous contacts with the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora in the Government of the Republic of Kosovo, Lisa Gashi, Kosovo’s Ambassador to Panama, Heroina Telaku, as well as visits to the Consulate of Kosovo in New York meeting Ambassador Blerim Reka, and furthermore had a meeting with the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Dominican Republic, Hugo Rivera.
Rosalba Plasencia will soon join the diplomatic choir of the Dominican Republic, while Kosovo, through the Self-Determination Movement, has just sown a seed for sustainable diplomatic relations between the two states.
