On 15^th September 2025, the European Union Rule of Law in Kosovo (EULEX) had the pleasure of welcoming a German delegation of scientific staff from the Federal Administrative Court, accompanied by representatives from the German Embassy in Kosovo. The purpose of the visit was for them to gain a deeper understanding of the Mission’s mandate in strengthening the justice system in Kosovo.

The group was received by EULEX Deputy Head of Mission, Emily Rakhorst, and was given a detailed briefing on the Mission’s monitoring work by the Head of the Monitoring Pillar, Giovanni Galzignato, and the Deputy Chief of the Case Monitoring Unit, Heidi Heggdal.

During the meeting, the visitors had the opportunity to discuss in length how the robust monitoring carried out by EULEX’s Case Monitoring Unit contributes to fostering judicial independence, transparency, accountability, and respect for human rights. They also explored the challenges faced by the Unit, as well as its most recent achievements in advancing the rule of law.

The Mission thanks the German Embassy in Kosovo for organizing such an engaging and insightful visit.
