EU's monitoring mission in law, justice and customs in Kosovo is expected to expire in mid of 2010, informs the daily Koha Ditore.
The mandate of the mission will expire in June according to the joint action Plan of the European Council, meanwhile its exit strategy will be in several phases. The EU countries will assess and evaluate whether the mandate of the mission should consider an extension for a couple of more years in close consultation and ratification by the Republic of Kosovo institutions.
The EULEX officials in Kosovo confirm that their monitoring mission expires next year.
"The mandate of EULEX will expire in June 14, 2010. The discussions in EU regarding the mission will begin next year in close consultation with the Government of Kosovo in Prishtina," informs the EULEX spokesperson, Christophe Lamfalussy.
"We are assisting Kosovo to move forward in building a transparent, accountability and multi-ethnic system of justice, police and customs in accordance with EU standards.The concept is that EULEX to exit in phases, depending on achievements. If, for example, Kosovo's Department of Police is working good, EULEX's monitoring department of police will close down. We are going to assess this with our Kosovar partners. The faster is the progress, the quicker we will depart", said EULEX's spokesperson.
The exit timetable of EULEX is envisioned in the operational plan known as CONOPS. CONOPS envisions EULEX to depart in two years of their mission.
