Serbia-Kosovo conflict

[Luosifen]

Do many people in the Balkans still see Tito's Yugoslavia as the good old times? What would it take for each nation to return to that entity?

Not many people. But some do. Few actually. Tito kept Yugoslavia united with his Brotherhood and Unity doctrine. He used communism to suppress nationalism and also kept his country neutral between the Warsaw Pact and NATO.

With all due respect, if only comparing cities, foinikas is not wrong, Pristina is indeed inferior to Pyongyang. Especially in public security, health and other aspects.
I have been to both cities.

Okay maybe soo… but this is a really random comparison

Most people have good memories of TITO’s YU, with the emphasis on TITO. He kept nationalism in check, distributed power across the republics and kept a balance both in YU and internationally.

Standard of living was really good, people had it all. However, it would be impossible to form a new YU today given the bloody recent history and most countries have chartered their own course and differ tremendously. Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro share common foreign policy views. Serbia is turned towards Russia and China whilst trying to keep things open with the EU. This are two completely different politics AND there is tremendous disagreements on history, important dates, holidays, etc. it would be impossible to unite it all.,

There as a reason YU fell apart, it was a land forced together by TITOs iron hand and under the slogan of “brotherhood and unity.”

It was one of the best in the Eastern Block,if I'm not mistaken. Life in Yugoslavia was much better compared to let's say Romania,Hungary,China,North Korea,Albania,maybe even USSR.

And if I may...

Of course,there was also this view...

Correct - YU imported labor from Romania, Bulgaria and other areas in EE to work construction jobs in YU. Also the YU passport allowed its citizens to travel freely throughout Europe.

It is claimed that Serbia wants to occupy the tiny Northern Serbian-majority parts of Kosovo/Mitrovica.

honestly , Europe must sit and redraw its map , half the conflicts there end

 

[Hack-Hook]

Serbians are the ones who are the starters of WW

more likely Bosnian and Croats , Serbs only goad them into that

Serbia is Russia's only friend in Europe (except Belarus).

But there are strange signs that it may not be so anymore. The Ukrainian war deeply shook the Kosovo-Russia-Serbia triangle.

#1) Serbia, which is completely dependent on Russia for natural gas, is doing much more trade, especially with Germany.

Just 5 weeks ago, Belgrade was decorated with German flags for the visit of the German leader.

#2) Then Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov wanted to pay a visit to Belgrade, but was unable to go because Serbia's NATO member neighbors closed its airspace. Vucic didn't react much on its neighbors. This was not well received in Russia.


#3) The Serbian army, interestingly enough, is being trained by American soldiers!

Moreover, Serbia also participates in joint military exercises with NATO!

#4) Serbia, along with other countries, condemned Russia at the UN when the Ukraine war broke out!

Things did not stop there, and it was understood that the equipment sent by the West to Ukraine went through Serbia.

#5) At this point, an even more interesting event occurred:

There was a plane crash with strange smells all around...

(see military transport plane that took off from Serbia and crashed into Greece)

#6) At first, the relations between the two countries were normal. Ukraine had not changed the love for Russia in Serbia.

In Belgrade, souvenirs were still filled with Putin t-shirts and sun hats with Z on them.

#7) As the Ukraine war dragged on, interesting things started to happen between Serbia and Russia.

The Ukrainian war deeply affected the Serbia-Russia-Kosovo triangle!

Kosovo is only a symptom of something bigger.

#8) Serbian leader, identified Ukraine with Serbia; also DPR and LPR with Kosovo and declared that it "supports the territorial integrity of Ukraine".

Serbia continues to consider Kosovo its territory

#9) What happened next?

In a speech to the West, Putin gave Kosovo as a precedent when he mentioned that the two puppet states in eastern Ukraine, LPR and DPR, are 'legal'!

Serbia was shocked.

#10) This is how Putin recognized Kosovo, Serbia's biggest red line!

Serbs, who had never given up on Russian propaganda for many years without exception, were stunned for the first time at that moment.

#11) RESULT:

Serbs who realize that Putin is sacrificing Kosovo to get the West to accept LPR and DPR; They wants to take action and completely occupy Kosovo, before things get too messy , and "before Putin divides their country".

I told you man,Vucic is just a centre kind of politician. His government is controversial in Serbia because of their pro-EU and sometimes pro-NATO stance.
