Why so? If we practice listening English conversations and do verbal face to face communication  with others in English as we make it literally in our whats app, twitter, facebook , social networking conversations ...etc we won't find any sort of difficulty in listening and understanding English. For me personally in real, I always communicate with my family, friends, colleagues, ...and all people in English language, so truthfully I haven't any difficulty to do so.

Listening to some non native speakers when they speak in English because of their pronunciation

I think English or any other accent if it is new to us it will be difficult to understand until we are used to it. It is difficult to follow different english accents if one is not a native english speaker, but one can master any accent by listening and used to it.

I think the difficult issue regarding listening skills is when the accent of the person speaking is not recognisable to you. Anyhow when you get used to his accent, there will be no problem, and you will move fine with listening skills.

Thanks for the invite,

For me I have never found anything difficult about listening to English. 

I agree with answers of the experts

Being a good listener, accent will never be a problem, it might be the pronunciation and also the knowledge of too many languages

The different accent in English is the most difficult thing in listening.
