    Yugoslavia evaporated the instant the USSR wasn’t around, they needed them to provide an umbrella from the West and without that buffer they imploded violently.

      Aha, so Soviet Union has been protecting Yugoslavia. That’s why Yugoslavs dug themselves into mountains and made bunkers along the iron curtain line with soviet satellites.

        And how did that work out for them? Did it stop Yugoslavia from being destroyed?

        I guess you think it’s just a coincidence that Yugoslavia barely lasted a year without the USSR.
