actually you wrote that the status is clearly Serbian, which it isn't.
There are arguments which support this view, but there are also strong
indices which point out the opposite. Besides that the population
doesn't see it like this and has their own government (i.e. the
Serbian government has no power over this area) there are also 89
states out of 194 who have already recognized Kosovo as state. This is
clearly an intermediate situation, not a final stable situation, but
declaring Kosovo as ordinary part of Serbia would be ignoring the
facts.
