24 March 1999. Look it up. More like destroy, steal land and give it to terrorists/separatists. Interesting fact is that separatists in Ukraine are not getting any support from NATO unlike Albanian scum did, all those years ago. The US foreign policy based on 'a pick and choose' principle might have had something to do with the carnage in Ukraine today. Lt Crom froths at the mouth every time he mentions the UN Charter. The document was buried deep in the ground on that day, never to be relevant in the international affairs again.

When Russia was later ostracized by the Western world for its annexation of Crimea and actions in Syria, a journalist asked Putin if the decline of Russo-American relations was due to Crimea or Syria.
“You are mistaken,” Putin said. “Think about Yugoslavia. This is when it started.”

There was quite a bit more going on in the Balkans during the 90's than just Albania.

But a more powerful invading force trying to bully a smaller neighbour seeking independence and Nato intervening to stop it sounds like a repeat yes, I'll give you that.
