UNITED NATIONS, Dhu-AlQa'dah 07, 1436, August 22, 2015, SPA -- Kosovo says it has applied for membership in the United Nations' scientific and cultural organization, a move immediately opposed by Serbia which argues that it's not qualified because it isn't a state, AP reported. Kosovo's Foreign Minister Hashim Thaci countered at a Security Council meeting Friday that Kosovo is eligible to become a member of the U.N. Economic, Scientific and Cultural Organization, or UNESCO, before it becomes a U.N. member state. --SPA 03:47 LOCAL TIME 00:47 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
