Summary/Abstract: In the third issue of the newsletter, through ACCESS TO JUSTICE, read about EU legislative solutions in the area of victims' rights and the inevitable alignment of domestic regulations with their provisions for countries that aspire to EU membership. Although it seems that this area has not found its place in the process of negotiations on Serbia's accession to the EU, the director of the British non-governmental organization Redress Carla Ferstman believes that it will necessarily become part of the negotiation material. The bulletin also conveys the very relevant experience of Croatian civil society in the recently completed EU accession process there. The director of the Croatian human rights organization Documenta, Vesna Teršelič, writes about the problems, challenges and opportunities that negotiations on EU accession bring for civil society organizations and the importance of the existence of political will within the state and European institutions for their inclusion in the process. Finally, the permanent sections of the newsletter offer an overview of events and trials for war crimes in the period from April 1, 2014.
