The risky initiative against the ‘Special Court’ (Prishtina Insight)
By: Aidan Hehir
Whatever one thinks of the Court, to disband it would have enormously grave repercussions for Kosovo’s international status.
The campaign by an alliance of Kosovo’s MPs to revoke the Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor’s Office for Kosovo has caused widespread alarm both within Kosovo and internationally. While their initial attempt failed, evidence suggests that, despite the threats issued by the US and the EU, the effort to disband the Court will be renewed when parliament reconvenes on January 15, possibly even against the warning issued by PDK leader and Assembly Speaker Kadri Veseli that such an initiative “would fail.”
