Kosovo: Statement by the Spokesperson on the reintegration of Kosovo Serb judicial personnel
Under its Constitution, Kosovo is a multi-ethnic society governed by the rule of law and its justice system must reflect Kosovo's ethnic diversity.
The EU has consistently called on Kosovo to enable the re-integration of Kosovo Serb judicial personnel in line with Kosovo law and Dialogue agreements.
The EU welcomes the withdrawal, on 15 July 2026, of the resignations submitted by Kosovo Serb judges, prosecutors and support staff.
The EU is concerned by yesterday's decision of the Kosovo Prosecutorial Council (KPC) to accept the resignations that had already been withdrawn and by today's decision of the Acting President decreeing the resignations. This appears incompatible with the law, with due process and overall rule of law requirements in Kosovo.
The EU calls on all relevant institutions concerned to refrain from actions aiming at preventing the reintegration of Kosovo Serb judicial personnel.
