The Kosovo Assembly will resume its plenary session today at 11:00, with a vote on amendments to the Law on the Specialist Chambers and the Specialist Prosecutor`s Office also on the agenda.

The session was interrupted on Thursday after MPs failed to return to the plenary hall even 30 minutes after the scheduled resumption time of 14:00.

Speaker of the Assembly Albulena Haxhiu postponed the session, criticizing MPs for their absence.

“The Assembly will continue its work on Friday at 11:00. It is not serious that, half an hour after 14:00, MPs are still not coming. I cannot proceed with the work while waiting indefinitely,” Haxhiu said.

The request by the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) to review amendments to the Law on the Specialist Chambers and the Specialist Prosecutor's Office was also added to the agenda.

However, the proposed amendments have drawn criticism from international partners.

The British Embassy in Pristina expressed concern over the Assembly's intention to vote again on the amendments, warning that such a move could harm relations with international partners.

In a statement, the embassy said the proposed changes would not serve Kosovo's core interests.

The German Embassy also expressed concern, sharing the European Union Office in Kosovo's reaction.

“The German Embassy fully agrees with the concerns of the EU Office in Kosovo regarding the possible vote in the Kosovo Assembly on the law amending and supplementing the Law on Specialist Chambers,” the statement said.

The EU Office warned that the proposed amendments raise serious concerns about Kosovo's international obligations and respect for fundamental rule-of-law principles, particularly judicial independence, the protection of victims and witnesses, procedural rights and effective accountability.

It also questioned the constitutionality of the proposed changes and called for consultations before any adoption, in accordance with Kosovo's international obligations.
