Kosovo får övervakad självständighet

 The Settlement provides that Kosovo will have a Constitution, to be drafted and adopted by Kosovans.

 The Constitution must provide that:
 Kosovo is a multi-ethnic society based upon the equality of all its citizens;
 Kosovo has no official religion and is neutral on question of religious beliefs;
 Kosovo will have its own, distinct, flag, seal and anthem, which must reflect the multi-ethnic character of Kosovo;
 The official languages of Kosovo will be Albanian and Serbian;
 Kosovo will have the right to negotiate and conclude international agreements, including the right to seek membership in international organizations;
 Kosovo will have no territorial claims against and will not seek union with another State or part of any State;
 Non-majority communities will be represented in the Assembly through a system of guaranteed/reserved seats;
 Legislation dealing with areas of special interest to Kosovo’s non-majority Communities requires a specific parliamentary procedure -- a “double majority” of Assembly members present and voting and those members holding seats guaranteed or reserved for majority communities

 Municipalities will have the right to cooperate with municipalities and institutions in Serbia, including the right to receive financial donations and technical assistance from Serbia, within certain clear parameters set by the Settlement.

 Under the Settlement, Kosovo will have no official religion.

 45 protective zones will be established around the most prominent churches and monasteries, as well as historical monuments.

 Serbian authorities are expected to return archaeological and ethnological exhibits, which were taken on loan from the museums of Kosovo in 1998-1999.

• The Settlement provides for Kosovo’s ability to apply for membership in International Financial Institutions (IFIs), among others, and to enter into contractual arrangements and other international agreements.

• Under the Settlement, Kosovo will assume its share of the international debt of the Republic of Serbia.
• Kosovo’s share will be determined through negotiations between Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia, taking into account the principles used for the allocation of the external debt in the case of the succession to the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

Kosovo Police Service (KPS)

 The KPS will have a unified chain of command throughout Kosovo.

 The ethnic composition of the KPS within a given municipality will, to the extent possible, reflect the ethnic composition of the population within that municipality.

 In Kosovo Serb majority municipalities, the Municipal Assembly will have a role in the selection of the local police Station Commander.

Kosovo Security Force (KSF)

 A new professional and multi-ethnic Kosovo Security Force will be established.

 The KSF will have a maximum of 2,500 active members and 800 reserve members, without heavy weapons. Members of the KSF will be recruited from across Kosovo through a formal selection process developed jointly by Kosovo and the International Military Presence (IMP)

 The KSF will initially be primarily responsible for crisis response, explosive ordinance disposal, and civil protection.

 The KSF will be designed and prepared to fulfil other security functions, not appropriate for the police or other law enforcement organizations. The IMP, in coordination with the ICR, will decide when to authorize the KSF to engage in these new security functions.

 The current KPC, having accomplished its goals, including the facilitation of Kosovo’s post-conflict recovery, will be disbanded within one year. The International Community will develop a Demobilization and Reintegration process for the KPC retirees.
