Justice Minister Hoxha meets Lunacek (Telegrafi)
Kosovo’s Justice Minister, Dhurata Hoxha, met today in Pristina the European Parliament Rapporteur for Kosovo, Ulrike Lunacek. Hoxha and Lunacek discussed the Progress Report on Kosovo which highlights the positive steps of Kosovo but also the criteria still to be met for the decision on visa liberalisation. Hoxha said that one of the criteria is strengthening the rule of law, expressing the commitment of implementing rule of law reforms, consolidation of good governance but also economic reforms. These, according to her, are jointly achieved through coordination and supervision by the EU. “Good governance and rule of law, includes policies against corruption, judicial reform, the system of accountability and transparency in the functioning of institutions. We will address these recommendations,” Hoxha said. On the other hand, Lunacek emphasized that Kosovo’s Euro-integration path is irreversible and offered her full support for this process to be completed successfully as soon as possible.
