Statement by the Spokesperson on the implementation of the justice agreement in the context of the EU-facilitated Dialogue

Today's integration of judges, prosecutors and administrative staff into the Kosovo judiciary marks the implementation of the justice agreement reached in February 2015 under the EU-facilitated Dialogue.

An integrated judiciary representative of all communities in Kosovo is a critical feature to ensure that justice is delivered, on behalf of the whole population.

An integrated judiciary will allow for a uniform implementation of Kosovo law in all Kosovo Basic Courts and by all Kosovo Prosecutors’ Offices.

A representative judiciary and a uniform implementation of Kosovo law will further rule of law as a key public service and a critical incentive for economic growth and investments.
