Just because you cannot be honest in your posts and cannot adequately explain your conspiracy theories it does not mean everything was because of the CIA.

Serbia’s attempt to create their fascist state failed and Croatia, Slovenia and Bosnia wanted nothing to do with Serbia’s brand of fascism.

Let”s look at it in detail:

1. Ethnic Nationalism

Rise of National Identity: A strong emphasis on Croatian and Slovenian national identities fueled desires for self-governance.

Historical Context: Both republics had distinct historical experiences and cultural identities that motivated their push for independence.

2. Political Autonomy

Discontent with Central Authority: Increasing dissatisfaction with Serbian dominance in the federal government led to calls for greater political autonomy.

Desire for Self-Determination: The belief in the right to self-determination motivated both republics to seek independence.

3. Economic Factors

Economic Disparities: Slovenia and Croatia were more economically developed compared to Serbia, leading to resentment over perceived exploitation.

Control over Resources: Desire to manage local economies and resources independently was a significant motivator.

4. Influence of Regional Politics

Collapse of Communism: The weakening of communist regimes across Eastern Europe inspired movements for independence and reform.

Success of Other Republics: The successful declarations of independence by other Eastern European nations encouraged similar aspirations in Croatia and Slovenia.

5. Response to Serbian Nationalism

Fear of Serbian Expansionism: The rise of Serbian nationalism under Slobodan Milošević created fears of aggressive policies toward non-Serb populations.

Protection of Minority Rights: Concerns over the treatment of non-Serb populations in a Serbian-dominated Yugoslavia prompted calls for independence.

These factors collectivelycontributed to the declarations of independence by Croatia in June 1991 andSlovenia shortly before, setting the stage for subsequent conflicts in theregion.

Lol! You are constantly proving what I have been saying all along. Unilateral, unconstitutional declarations of independence by Slovenia and Croatia were the cause of the biggest war in Europe since ww2. Thanks Ailo.

Similar decisions in Ukraine in 2014 “set the stage” for the current war. I thought you would be supportive of those breakaway regions, considering your history of supporting peoples right for self- determination. Peace.

“Protection off Minority Rights”

Thst is gold! The only minority that needed protection were Serbs in the fascist Croatia. You make me laugh Ailo. The removal of Serbs constitutive nation status in the new Constitution 1990, combined with the great purge of Serbs from the government and the police force under the banner of the emerging ww2 type fascist regime, might have made Serbs a tiny bit nervous.

We all know what happened to them under that fascist regime decades earlier.
