From the beginning of 2016, Pristina is preparing to launch a serious campaign for the admission of Kosovo in the UN, quoted sources from diplomatic circles. However, in that case Kosovo will face with insurmountable obstacle, reflected in Russian and the probable Chinese veto. The only thing which Pristina can do in order to enter East River is candidacy for permanent observer of non-member state, or the status by which the Palestine was received in UN, three years ago. Non - member state can apply for that status, if it is member of one or more specialized UN agencies, what Kosovo became through membership in MMF.

According to Vladislav Jovanovic, former Serbian Ambassador to the UN, the Palestine model cannot be implemented in the case of Kosovo because of binding SC Resolution 1244. “The only “shortcut” could be in case of withdrawal of this Resolution, or to amend the Resolution by “extracting” the part which guarantees Serbian sovereignty over Kosovo. In order to reach such scenario, Serbia should be offered tremendous compensation - like annexation of Republika Srpska to Serbia, or the talks about division of Kosovo,” stated Jovanovic.
