Special Court will be established, either through the Kosovo Assembly or the UN Security Council, said today the EU Special Representative to Kosovo, Samuel Zbogar, in a conference in Pristina. “From what I’m hearing from friends, establishment of the special court cannot be stopped,” said Zbogar. He said it is time for Kosovo to remove “the black cloud” hanging over it with regards to war crimes allegations contained in the Council of Europe’s report by the Swiss senator Dick Marty. “The court will not damage Kosovo’s image but will clear it,” he stressed. Once the special court is established, Zbogar believes that Kosovo could start a new process that would affect its relations with international partners.
The Dutch ambassador to Kosovo, Robert Bosch, also said the process for establishing the special court is unstoppable while the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) MP, Teuta Sahatqija, said Kosovo institutions should be able to deal with challenges such as the establishment of the special court.
