The German Embassy in Kosovo has reacted to the possible vote in the Kosovo Assembly of Changes in the Specialised Chambers Law, disseminating on social networks the European Union Office’s response to Kosovo.

The German Embassy agrees fully with the EU Office’s concerns in Kosovo over the possible vote in the Kosovo Convention on Change and Fulfilling the Law for Specialised Chambers, the embassy’s response said.

Meanwhile, the EU Office in Kosovo has voiced concern over the possible vote tomorrow in the country of these legal changes.

According to the EU Office, the changes raise serious concerns about Kosovo’s international obligations and respect for the fundamental principles of rule of law, particularly the independence of the judiciary, the protection of victims and witnesses, the procedural rights and effective accountability.

The EU office has stressed that the changes also raise concerns about their constitutionality, demanding preliminary consultations before any adoption of the law, in line with Kosovo’s international obligations.
