"15 countries lobbying for Kosovo's UNESCO membership"

"The first phase of joining is October this year, when UNESCO's executive board will meet, where a majority should vote for Kosovo so that later in November, there is a vote on membership at the general assembly," he added.

According to him it is Kosovo's disadvantage that the U.S. will not vote in that conference.

He concluded that Kosovo has been lobbying for eight months with various delegation, and that "195 have already been contacted."

The government in Belgrade opposes Pristina's bid to joint the organization as an attempt to take over medieval Serb cultural heritage in the province where ethnic Albanians in 2008 unilaterally declared independence.
