A. whereas continued substantial efforts, backed by a constructive dialogue between political forces and with the neighbouring countries, are needed in order to prepare for the challenges of EU membership;
B. whereas each enlargement country is judged individually on its own merits, and it is the speed and quality of reforms that determines the timetable for accession;
C. whereas 114 countries have recognised Kosovo’s independence, including 23 of the 28 EU Member States;
D. whereas the EU has repeatedly demonstrated its willingness to assist with the economic and political development of Kosovo through a clear European perspective, while Kosovo has shown aspiration on its path towards European integration;
E. whereas owing to persistent polarisation among its political parties, Kosovo has demonstrated limited progress on EU-related reforms, which are essential for making further progress in the EU accession process;
F. whereas Kosovo’s flourishing informal economy is hindering the development of a viable economy for the country overall;
G. whereas the Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor Office in the Hague have been fully judicially operational since 5 July 2017;
H. whereas on 8 June 2018 the Council decided to refocus and extend the mandate of the EU rule of law mission (EULEX) in Kosovo, bringing the judicial executive part of the mission’s mandate to an end; whereas the mandate’s new end date was set at 14 June 2020;
I. whereas Kosovo remains the only country in the Western Balkans whose citizens need a visa to travel to the Schengen Area;
1. Welcomes the important pieces of legislation adopted within the framework of the European Reform Agenda (ERA) and calls for their full implementation; believes that cross-party consensus should be built to adopt key EU-related reforms; looks forward to the adoption of a new ERA in 2019;
2. Points out, however, the slow pace in implementing fundamental reforms, caused by a lack of cross-party consensus and continued political polarisation; notes that this has adversely affected the ability of the assembly and the government to deliver sustained and sustainable reforms; condemns the obstructive behaviour of some parliamentarians; calls on all political parties to establish an inclusive political dialogue; stresses the need to improve the assembly’s effective oversight of the executive and the transparency and quality of law-making, including by ensuring active and constructive participation and limiting the use of urgent procedures for adopting laws; encourages consensus on EU accession-related reforms;
3. Welcomes the fact that the area of public administration has registered some progress, but underlines the need for further reform; calls, in particular, for the state administration to be depoliticised and restructured;
4. Welcomes the long overdue ratification of the August 2015 Border Demarcation Agreement with Montenegro in March 2018, which marks a step forward in the spirit of good neighbourly relations; underlines the significance of this step towards visa liberalisation;
5. Urges Kosovo’s authorities to comprehensively deal with previously identified electoral shortcomings, including a lack of transparency and accountability of funding for political parties and campaigns, and allegations of widespread voter intimidation, particularly within many Kosovo Serb communities, by enacting timely legislative and administrative measures to address the outstanding recommendations of EU and European Parliament observation missions and of the Venice Commission well in advance of the next round of elections, in order to ensure they are fully aligned with international standards; welcomes the steps forward made within the electoral administration in relation to gender equality and calls on Kosovo to further step up its efforts to increase female political participation and to strengthen the overall legal framework;
6. Expresses its concerns about Kosovo’s under-financed judiciary, widespread corruption, elements of state capture, undue political influence and issues of a lack of respect for fair trials and due process, including in cases of extradition; underlines the importance of reform processes in rule of law, with a particular focus on independence and efficiency and the need to further strengthen witness protection;
7. Stresses that a representative judiciary and a uniform implementation of Kosovo law are prerequisites for addressing an inconsistent, slow and inefficient delivery of justice; welcomes the integration of Kosovo Serb judges, prosecutors and administrative staff into the Kosovo judiciary in line with the 2015 Justice Agreement between Serbia and Kosovo; believes the judiciary is still vulnerable to undue political influence and that further efforts are needed to build up capacity and ensure the disciplinary liability of judges and prosecutors, including through a substantial judicial functional review for all judges, prosecutors, high-ranking police officers and criminal investigators; welcomes the establishment in November 2017 of the Government Commission on the Recognition and Verification of the Status of Sexual Violence Victims During the Conflict in Kosovo;
8. Notes that corruption and organised crime, including drug and human trafficking, and cybercrime, remain issues of concern that require concerted efforts; welcomes the initial progress made in strengthening the track record on the investigation and prosecution of high-level corruption and cases of organised crime; expects decisive and sustained efforts under the obligations of the EU accession process; welcomes the Ombudsperson’s continued efforts to strengthen its capacity to review cases;
9. Calls for the establishment of an improved legal framework and for greater efficiency and capacity of the prosecution, so as to enable a comprehensive approach to investigations and prosecutions, which should be substantiated by the freezing, confiscation and recovery of assets, and final convictions in cases of high-level corruption, organised and financial crime, money laundering and terrorist financing; calls for safeguards ensuring independence in law enforcement and prosecution and preventive counter-corruption measures across various sectors; believes that further measures are required to ensure better cooperation and coordination between law enforcement institutions and to maximise the independence and accountability of the judiciary; calls on Kosovo to abide by international procedures and rules on the extradition of foreign nationals;
10. Calls for genuine and constructive judicial and police cooperation between Kosovo and Serbia’s authorities; believes that Kosovo’s membership of Interpol and increased cooperation with Europol would further improve the effectiveness of measures targeting transnational crime; encourages, in the meantime, further cooperation in the fight against terrorism;
11. Deems it essential to implement, in a timely and comprehensive manner, the recommendations of Kosovo’s Ombudsperson, Auditor General, Anti-Corruption Agency and the Public Procurement Regulatory Commission; stresses the need to remedy deficiencies in the public procurement system and to improve interinstitutional cooperation and the exchange of information; strongly recommends the stepping up of monitoring, evaluation and audit capabilities and the adoption and implementation of an anti-fraud strategy to protect Kosovo and the EU’s financial interests;
12. Welcomes the Commission’s confirmation, issued on 18 July 2018, that the benchmarks for visa liberalisation have been fulfilled; considers it vital to grant visa liberalisation to Kosovo without undue delay; takes the view that visa liberalisation will improve stability and bring Kosovo closer to the EU by improving the ease of travelling and doing business, while helping to counter people smuggling and corruption; calls on the Council to swiftly adopt its mandate to move forward towards the adoption of a visa-free regime;
13. Notes that beyond the progress made on meeting visa liberalisation requirements, sustained efforts must continue to fight organised crime, drug trafficking, human smuggling and corruption, in addition to concrete efforts to manage irregular migration flows and bring down the number of unfounded asylum claims;

16. Unequivocally condemns the killing of Kosovo Serb politician Oliver Ivanović; considers his murder to be a major blow to the constructive and moderate voices in the Kosovo Serbian community; stresses, as a matter of urgency, the need for genuine cooperation between Kosovo and Serbia’s investigators and for international support, so that both the perpetrators of the killing and those who ordered it are brought to justice without further delay;
17. Regrets reluctance to handle war crimes cases and underlines the importance of a clear political commitment to their prosecution; urges Kosovo’s authorities to demonstrate their firm and sustained commitment to their international obligations regarding the Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor’s Office in The Hague; expresses its deep concern about attempts by members of the Kosovo Assembly to abrogate the Law on the Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor’s Office in December 2017; deeply regrets the fact that these attempts resulted in a failure to adopt joint recommendations following the postponement of the fourth meeting of the EU-Kosovo Stabilisation and Association Parliamentary Committee (SAPC) to 17-18 January 2018; calls for a constructive approach to the EU-Kosovo SAPC and for enhanced parliamentary cooperation in this regard;

19. Notes the important role played by EULEX in strengthening the independent judiciary, police and customs systems; acknowledges, moreover, the preventive and reconciliatory role of EULEX in prosecuting and adjudicating in cases of war crimes, corruption and organised crime, and its continuing efforts to identify missing persons and uncover grave-sites in order to solve cases fully; recommends an assessment of the mission’s strengths and weaknesses;
