Implementation of the agreement on the judiciary means that Serb judges and prosecutors will now participate in the work of judicial institutions in Kosovo.

This significantly boosts the chances of proceedings being based on law, rather than ethnicity, says Milovan Drecun, chairman of the Serbian National Assembly's Committee on Kosovo and Metohija.

"This also means we are a step closer to forming the Community of Serb Municipalities (ZSO)," Drecun told state broadcaster RTS on Thursday.

That means a degree of legal certainty for Serbs, which is significant as they have been discriminated against by the Kosovo judiciary, Drecun said.

"They have been second-class citizens and "the most desiring of justice, with practically no chances of attaining it," he said.
