The European Union has officially confirmed the objective to establish a special court that will look into war crimes allegations in Kosovo. In a written response for RTK, the EU Office said the European Union is not suggesting the establishment of a tribunal, but rather a special court within Kosovo’s judicial system. The court would be based in Kosovo, but sensitive sessions, including the testimonies of witnesses, would be held outside the country given the nature of the allegations. Secondly, this court is not about Kosovo, the Kosovo Liberation Army or the nature of the war, but rather includes investigations on war crimes allegedly committed by individuals. The court will be established after the exchange of letters between Kosovo and the European Union for the Special Investigations Task Force and the EULEX mandate.
