Our Director of Advocacy, Olga Kikou, thanked Commissioner Kyriakides for her commitment to animal welfare in a op-ed published in The Brussels Times. “We hope her successor will recognize the critical importance of animal protection,” said Olga.
Olga Kikou (Director of Advocacy) was quoted in this piece by Euractiv about the proposal for a new regulation on the transport of animals. Olga cautioned against the use of vague wording that might undermine animal protection goals.
