Austria wants criminals out of the EU to serve sentences in Kosovo
The Austrian government wants criminals from non-European Union (EU) countries convicted in the country to serve their sentences in Kosovo, a move inspired by a pact the Balkan territory has already signed with Denmark.

Austrian Interior Minister Gerhard Karner, a conservative, announced the initiative after meeting with Danish Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard in Copenhagen on Tuesday.
The meeting heard about the process followed by Denmark for the agreement, which is in the final stages of legal approval, according to a statement from the Austrian Interior Ministry.
"The prison facility that Denmark is planning in Kosovo is part of Chancellor Karl Nehammer's initiatives for Austria," Karner said, referring to the plans of the head of government, known for his anti-immigration stance.
In 2021, Kosovo agreed to rent 300 prison cells to Denmark for an annual fee of $15 million and funding for green energy projects.
The cells will house convicted criminals from third countries once the legal procedures are complete, with Danish law applying rather than Kosovo's legal framework.
Karner has previously cited the UK's plans to deport asylum seekers who arrive illegally to Rwanda as an example to follow.
