Biography[edit]

Prior to 2006, Knoll was involved in the OSCE Mission to Bosnia and then the OSCE Mission to Kosovo from 2000 to 2002.[1][2] and then with UNMIK.[2]

In 2006 Knoll was a Special Advisor to the Director of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR),[1] where he was an elections monitor in 2007.[3]

Knoll advised Janez Lenarcic when in 2008 the latter was the incoming Director of the ODIHR.[4]

Knoll's 2008 doctoral thesis was published by Cambridge University Press and attracted some scholarly attention.[5][6][7]

In March 2009 Knoll found it significant that neither the SRSG nor the United Nations Security Council pronounced Kosovo's declaration of independence a violation of Resolution 1244.[8]

Knoll was an OSCE elections monitor at the 2012 Russian Federation elections.[9]

Knoll was in January 2013 an academic at the Central European University in Budapest,[10] where he directed the Global Policy Academy.[2]

Knoll was mentioned as a historian in the final report of UNMIK,[11] as well as being cited extensively in most worthwhile papers on the subject of UNMIK.[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]

In November and December 2020, Knoll wrote about the role of the European Union in post-war Karabakh.[28][29] He wrote as well in February 2021 about a possible role for the OSCE there.[30]
