Veliaj's friend is declared "non grata" by the USA

The US Department of State announced a day ago the declaration non grata of Artan Grub, the former deputy prime minister of North Macedonia, and Enver Bexheti, a judge at the Court of Appeal of North Macedonia.

DASH's announcement states that Grubi and Bexheti took bribes by undermining the court proceedings related to the conviction of Sasha Mijalkov, director of the Security and Intelligence Agency of North Macedonia.
