In its evaluation of the United Nations Interim Administration Mission (UNMIK), the Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS) assessed the Mission’s contributions to achieving selected rule of law outcomes in Kosovo from 2016 to 2022.
UNMIK acted as the interim administrator of justice in Kosovo from its establishment in 1999 with the adoption of Security Council resolution 1244 (1999)until the unilateral declaration of independence by Kosovo in 2008. Responding to the changing circumstances on the ground, the Council recognized the European Union’s enhanced operational role in the rule of law area under a United Nations umbrella. As a result, the rule of law profile and structure of UNMIK in this arena was reconfigured. Since the signing of the Brussels Agreement between Belgrade and
Pristina in 2013, UNMIK has focused its support for the rule of law sector on the integration of the judiciary in Kosovo, in particular northern Kosovo, a key feature of the agreement.
