Summary/Abstract: In this article, the Author considers various issues concerning the nature and the status of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor’s Office whose establishment was projected by the European Union (in the field of foreign and security policy) and implemented through legal instruments of the so-called „Republic of Kosovo“, with the full logistical and financial support of the European Union. Those judicial institutions deal with key events from 1998 to 2000 and also with the legal qualifications and status under international law of the main actors in the conflict on the territory of Kosovo and Metohija. The institutional and Legal framework established by the creation of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor’s Office enables implementation of the prosecutorial policy that goes in the direction of the “legalization” of the Kosovo Liberation Army and strengthening the claim of certain political actors for Kosovo independence.
