Summary/Abstract: The Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor’s Office were established in 2015 by a law adopted by the Assembly of Kosovo, in response to the Council of Europe report on inhuman treatment and organ trafficking in Kosovo and the report of the Special Investigative Task Force. However, the initiative to establisht he specialist court did not originate from Kosovo but from the European Union and the United States, with great pressure and threats to the Kosovo authorities. From the very beginning, this court has faced a lack of political support and legitimacy. In this paper, the author discusses the reasons for the establishment of the specialist court, as well as the results of its work over the past ten years, with a special focus on some of the key problems the court faces.
