Description
The democratic oversight and governance of the security sector represents one of the Kosovo’s criteria in its path to the European Union (EU). The EU annual progress report is one of the main measurement instruments of country’s progression and challenges in aligning with the EU conditionality. The security sector is examined through two sections/fields of the progress report: political criteria and the European standards criteria. In the political criteria, the section covers the general developments of the security sector. In the European standards section, the progress report examines some thematic areas such as: organised crime (money laundering, drugs), data protection and the performance of Police.
