Who is responsible for the fact that even after 15 years there are no results in the prosecution of those responsible for crimes against the Serbs and members of other national communities in Kosovo, including Albanians who are not supporting the KLA? This is a question to which the Committee for Kosovo and Metohija of the Serbian Parliament had no answer.

Graffiti reading the threat “the caliphate is coming” and signatures KLA, Albanian National Army and the Islamic state (ISIS) appeared on Sunday on the property of the monastery of Visoki Dečani.

An association gathering families of Serb victims in Kosovo said it hoped that an investigation of a suspected mass grave will yield "concrete results."  The Association of the Families of 1998-2000 Kosovo Victims warned at the same time that last year only nine people were identified from a long list of kidnapped Serbs, and this year none. They hope that the probe announced on Monday by the Serbian War Crimes Prosecution and the EULEX Prosecution of a site in the village of Piskote "will give concrete results." "The families of Serb victims, as well as the families of all victims in t

A UN Security Council meeting to present UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon’s regular quarterly report on the situation in Kosovo was held late on Friday. An agreement was reached that a special court for war crimes committed in KiM should be set up as soon as possible, Tanjug reported. Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dačić said that Serbia expects a special court to be set up as soon as possible, by the beginning of the next year at the latest, before which indictments will be raised against leaders of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) suspected of crimes against humanity and war crimes.

A cloud of doubt surrounding the crimes in Kosovo will only be cleared after court proceedings are complete, says John Clint Williamson. The U.S. prosecutor headed an EU team that looked into the war crimes committed by the ethnic Albanian KLA against Serbs in Kosovo. Williamson spoke for Tanjug on Saturday, the last day of his term in office as the chief prosecutor for the EULEX Special Investigative Task Force (SITF).

The establishment of a special court for KLA crimes depends on the pace of the formation of new Kosovo government, which should sign an agreement on the establishment probably with the Netherlands, where will be located a part of the court. Decision on the establishment of the Court brought previous composition of the Kosovo Assembly in late April, and it is expected that the Court will start working in 2015. However, the organization, jurisdiction and the way of functioning are still in the sphere of assumptions.

 UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged Kosovo authorities and the EU to ensure that a special court will be formed no later than early next year, which would deal with the issue of war crimes allegedly committed by the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) in Kosovo in 1999.

As with many other issues in relation with the EU and America, the key is that government in Belgrade is determined to persist under heavy pressures from Brussels and Washington, in implementing its policy.

The statement of the prosecutor of the EU Special Investigation Team, Clint Williamson, on the findings of an investigation into the trafficking in human organs in Kosovo, although with the status “temporary announced until a special court for the crimes of the KLA will be established”, provides space for diplomatic and political action of official Belgrade in the fight for Kosovo, believe our diplomatic sources.  Opposition parties DSS (Democratic Party of Serbia) and DS (Democratic Party) share the same opinion, as well as a former member of the Assembly of Kosovo, Rada Trajkovic.

Rexhep Selimi, one of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) founders and Vetevendosje MP, said that what the EU Special Investigative Task (SITF) prosecutor, Clint Williamson, presented were the results of a two-year investigation which produced no evidence that KLA committed crimes. Selimi said the report which “claims and presupposes” that crimes were committed against Serbs and others but without containing names or bodies of victims comes at a time when bodies of Albanian victims are still being recovered from mass graves of Serbia. “A crime is a crime wherever and whenever it happened.
