the balkans cant go too long without violent conflict or it ceases to exist
The Balkans has no chill
As a Balkaner, tru
They would actually sink into the Mediterranean if they went too long without a war crime
Be like the USA, outsource the violence survival ritual to some other country

Seeing Joe Biden back in his day be so animated makes me sad he can't do that today.
Aging sucks.
I'm old enough to remember Joe Biden's tirades against Apartheid South Africa in the 1980s. Imagine Joe in his Prime in 2023- the Republicans would wet themselves.
@@jcreed09God, him shouting "Damn it, we HAVE favorites!" during that one speech shook me. What happened to that energy?
The situation in Norhtern Kosovo is more complex than Vaush is implying here. The Kosovar authorities have refused to implement a power sharing deal they negotiated with the majority Serb towns in the north. The Kosovo government has actually been reprimanded by the US for undermining the peace process.
I have a question: What is this power sharing and how has Kosovo not done this? From the article and this video it does look like Serbian lost an election. I don't know.much about mordern Balkan politics so I'd like to see an article or source that could explain this better.
@@aidanmoore8117 In 2013 Serbia and Kosovo signed the Brussels agreement which included Kosovo creating the "association of Serb municipalities", giving Serbs more autonomy and in exchange Serbs would recognize and participate in Kosovar institutions. It's been 10 years and Kosovo still refuses to create the association of Serb municipalities so the Serbs decided to boycott the elections and exit the institutions in protest.
@@apsoles746 You're acting as if Serbia hasn't also torpedoed this agreement. Serbia has never ratified the agreement because if they ratifiy they have to indirectly recognize Kosovo as a real country and they are too selfish to do that.
Yes, albeit in classic Balkan reciprocity due to the fact that Serbia has actively refused to allow Albanian-language schoolbooks and have also reduced ethnic Albanians in the Presevo Valley's ability to vote, have property, health insurance, amongst other things. Let us not forget that Serbia also significantly escalated the 2021 license and registration situation by stationing soldiers and aircraft on the border with Kosovo, almost eerily echoing a similar two Slavic countries that would culminate in the next year. Both have been up to some shit, but Serbia is without doubt the main perpetrator of many of these significant increases in tensions and belligerence, no doubt a recall to the years under Milosevic in which Albanians and Kosovars were made some of the biggest targets of the FRYs propaganda campaigns next to the Bosniaks.
Kosovo has also agreed to the EUs requirement of autonomy for Kosovo Serbs, one of the major preconditions for their EU membership that was signed in March of this year. There's definitely one side that has shown the willingness to accept minorities within their borders and provide unique provisions so that they can better represent themselves... and it isn't Serbia.
@@trashrabbit69 What are you talking about, the agreement for the association of Serb municipalities was signed in 2013 and Kosovo is still refusing to create it, that was the whole point of the protest, meanwhile Serbia has recognized Kosovar institutions,IDs,passports etc..
If you don't vote for me, you aint Bosnian, Jack!!!!!
Everything I’ve seen says Sadam got the weapons from the soviets, China and France.

Learning things is good. Republicans, of course, have been overtly anti-education for decades. This comment is an example of it.
@@nsbd90now Absolutely, he's "learning." The extent to which he comes across as delusional and ill-informed might not be immediately clear to you. The situation becomes intricate when considering his support for NATO/Ukraine against Russia while simultaneously advocating for the NATO bombing of Serbia. In both instances, sovereign nations were invaded by external powers that actively supported secessionist movements, some even labeled as terrorists, like in the Albanian case, which were later acknowledged to have received funding and training from organizations such as the CIA.
Different perspectives offer justifications: someone from Russia's standpoint might emphasize what they view as a Ukrainian genocide, involving the loss of 15-18k Russian lives (thus, this individual argues for preventing such a slaughter). Conversely, Albanians may passionately denounce events as genocide from their own viewpoint. However, in the broader context, international law suffered due to the prevailing influence of geopolitical factors and the ambitious aspirations of major powers.
To put it succinctly, Vaush exhibits a clear contradiction in his beliefs and stances.
@@boombang857 the two situations arent comparable, serbs were ethnically cleansing albanians and ukranians werent ethnically cleansing russians.

Also potentially of concern is Dodik (leader of the Srpska entity inside Bosnia) has had 3 visits with Putin in Moscow since the Ukraine invasion. For a very minor leader to get three audiences in such a short space of time is potentially concerning
He's basically the last openly pro-putin and anti-eu relevant leader left in europe. I still can't believe no high representative just yeeted him in prison in the last 15 years after all the corruption and open authoritarianism
@@EE-gv9wt Its a real worry and not being covered much at all, I'm not sure how much of his continuous secession talk is just mafia style maximising of personal position but its obviously playing with fire
I could be wrong here but it also feels like he's playing to Moscow rather than to Belgrade (I'm not sure if Serbia really even wants the headache of Srpska, they seem far more interested in Kosovo), and Dodik himself maybe gets more from threatening secession than going through with it....but Moscow would absolutely love for the Balkans to catch fire right now
As to Dodik being the only openly pro-Putin leader left in Europe I'm not sure on that (I assume we leave aside Lukashenko), Orban in Hungary could fit into this category
More worrying is probably Slovakia, especially with elections this September
Dodik was sabre rattling pretty damn hard at the beginning of the Russian invasion. Had it gone better for the Russkies, I think shit pot would've been stirred again in the Balkans.
@@parazitkolol This is true, and its still possible it might happen, and maybe not because its going well for Russia - but because its going badly for Russia, and Putin wanting to fracture the west by opening up a new conflict.
That being said I can't tell whether Dodik wants to do more than sabre-rattling or not, and I'm not convinced that Serbia really wants the Srpska headache (maybe why Dodik is going straight to Moscow and bypassing Belgrade?)
@@jascu4251 I think the main reason Dodik got quiet was because there wasn't going to be any support from Belgrade because Belgrade wasn't going to get support from Moscow since Moscow shit the bed so hard. And since Moscow ain't helping Vučić, ain't no chance in hell they'll help an even smaller fish that is Dodik. Russia even pulled their peace keeping troops from Armenia and stopped sending them weapons. I really doubt they have anything left to spare for flaring up local conflicts in the Balkans.

This comment Blackpilled me.
Somewhere in the world, Slavoj is sniffing with a particular sense of vindication.
I have to assume the only reason serbs in kosovo are boycotting election resigning from the police etc is specifically to create a crisis which they can then pretend to be the victim of by pointing and government and police who dont represent them.
No, it’s because the Kosovar government have broken an agreement about autonomy with them.
I don't think you understand it...
@@ObiJohnKenobi67 what agreement is that
@@ObiJohnKenobi67 and how exactly was that agreement broken
@@eelvis1674 by the Brussels agreement only serbian Majors and police officers are allowed to be in control in the serb majority communes.
Because kosovo albanians broke that agreement by sending albanian majors and police officers, they technically broke that agreement.
Although that could have been prevented if the kosovo serbs didnt just boycott the elections and the serbian police officers didnt mass resign, due to a small license plate issue.
The mass resignment of serb police officers (and the sending of albanian police officers in the serb majority communes) occured in November of 2022.
And the boycott of the elections by serbs happened a few days ago.
I always knew that nationalism was really stupid and destructive, but studying the 90's Yugoslav wars made that fact explicitly clear to me. That's why the rise of mainstream American ultra nationalism scares me so much.
I wouldn't be too worried, we don't have that many Serbs
@@squidward5110 lmao 🤣
Nationalism does seem to be worse when in certain people’s hands 😉
God, that sounds so xenophobic, but I grew up during the entirety of the Yugoslav/Bosnian wars. I was watching it from the safety of my American living room. but those images, and those stories really stuck with me. After researching it more thoroughly throughout my adulthood, I realized how fortunate I probably was that my young brain couldn’t fully comprehend the horrors of war, especially wars fueled by ethnic/religious hatred. The stuff that happened during the conflicts after the breakup of Yugoslavia were so much worse than what was shown and talked about in the news.
We have a lot of problems we need to deal with here in the US, but I think we should pause occasionally to reflect on all the ways we are so extremely fortunate as well. It can always be worse ✌🏻🇺🇸💙
Wow younger Biden hadna different flare. That look at the end was super villian like
My coworker is Kosovar and man he cannot stop talking about this. There's so much shit behind the situation from 2005 to now, its almost like 100 years of history condensed into just 18.
To put it simply: Serbia and Kosovo tried to solve the deep divides between Kosovo Serbs and Albanians by electing a sort of dual-power in which majority Serb municipalities could have a higher degree of autonomy, encapsulated by the ability to have their own registration and plates for cars in Kosovo by the Serbian government way back in 2011. That agreement expired last year, which inflamed tensions. To which the EU stepped in, and tried to plan out a more structured deal between the two to give a degree of autonomy for Kosovar Serbs within the country in 2013. The Brussels Agreement didn't _actually_ go into force, which means most of the agreements were tentative and mostly hashed out by local mayorships and provincial officials. Those, likewise, also had a degree of independence from the Kosovo government in their dealings within Serb majority areas by instead being more aligned with Serbia including having their own party, the Serb List.
However, the Kosovo Supreme Court ruled most of those provisions unconstitutional, since... y'know, its in Kosovo's borders... and Serbia is not Kosovo (shocked pikachu face.) So now all the Serbs are mad because daddy Serbia can't give them license plates and free political clout (many of the Kosovo Serb politicians have close ties to the ruling Progressive Party of Aleksandar Vucic in Serbia, big surprise) and boycotted an already low turnout election, in which just SEVEN SERBIANS actually participated in the election, and only around 20k-ish Albanian Kosovars. Because so few people voted, there was literally no other option Kosovo had (no, recounts wouldn't work in this case) but to install their own officials as the mayors and representatives of these majority Serb areas, almost all of whom are Albanian. Serbian Kosovars got even more angry, and occupied town halls and streets to refuse the ability to allow these new officials in after their OWN PARTY ALL RESIGNED IN PROTEST. Only now the Kosovo government is starting to exert itself, and is forcing the mayors into office, resulting in the clashes.
tl;dr Shit's wack. Both Kosovo and Serbia are playing hardball and the USA and EU/UN have mostly just twaddled thumbs and said "oh well" to the situation. If it escalates, who knows. Certainly it would be Serbia's best interest to not directly engage in any military or paramilitary actions, considering the all too recent past. Vetevendosje is having a field day with this one.
sounds shockingly like "states' rights" and conservatives vs. libs in America to me
It wasn't the UN but the EU.
Kosovo signed the agreement, you can't just back out after that which the US and EU constantly remind Kosovo of. You say it was "unconstitutional" but so is Serbia recognizing Kosovar independence and Kosovo constantly says that Serbia should recognize it.
@@apsoles746 Except that agreement only goes insofar as Serbia upheld _their_ part of the agreement and stayed the fuck out of the Municipalities. They didn't. Serbia still sees Kosovo as its territory even though the WHOLE POINT OF THE AGREEMENT was that they accepted Kosovo's independence and did not prevent it from accessing into the EU. The agreement was frozen by the Court after they couldn't join UNESCO after Serbia and Russia actively refused their acceptance. That failure significantly hampered their ability to join the EU and as determined by that same agreement, they broke the terms first.
While I claim no expertise in the conflict it seems to me that the Serbs are really the ones playing hard ball. It doesn't seem like Kosovo has done anything wrong in this case
Reading this, I felt like I needed a masters degree in history of Kosovo and Serbia.
Serbia be like. See daddy Russia i can do illegal invasions too.
So true
Nah Serbia wont attack anyone. I hope but nah it won't. Serbia is now surrendered by nato states. And yeah it would be suiced for Serbia. I mean it was suiced in the 90s to but now it's much worse.
?? Isn't Russia-Donbass the same as Albania-Kosovo?
How was Serbia the occupying force in their own country?
This is not defence of Serbia, or the actions of the police and military in the 90s, but it seems that you switched up something in your comparison.
@@djordjetosic4553 Thats the Issue Man there is no comparison. There was no Serbia the nation was called Yugoslavia and Kosova is independent state with it's own Autonomy then and Now. Serbian Nationalists can not win this one ;)
@@hamzaprime555 Of course there is a comparison. Foreign nationals(Albanians /Russians) were opressed by the standing government (Yugoslavia/Ukraine). They formed liberation armies and fought against the oppressor with the help of their mother nations(Albania/Russia). At some point, the mother nations intervened directly (Albanian invasion on Košare and NATO bombing/ Russian Invasion).
I am not saying "NATO did, so can Russia" exactly the opposite. The serbian government is taking a centrist approach towards the Ukranian war, because on the one hand, Russia is an "ally" in the international community, and on the other hand, if we accept Crimea and Donbass as Russian, we automatically accept Kosovo as legitimate.
So i don't get why you are comparing Serbia to Russia, when the situation is other way around.
It sounds like Serbia did to Kosovars what the Russians claim but don’t substantiate about Dontesk, proving again that every accusation the Right makes is an admission.
As someone born to Serbian nationalist parents, I can't fucking wait to hear how they justify this shit. I honestly just don't give a shit anymore, it's been so tiring hearing this stuff my whole life.
Justify what, protesting for their rights? The US and EU have already come out and condemned the Kosovo government in this situation.
@@apsoles746 their right to genocide? Nato was right. Now you're defending their right to do what? Kill Kosovars? For doing what? Where? When?
@@apsoles746 Their right to what
@@LaSerpentDEden For their right to have autonomy in the form of an association of Serb municipalities, a thing Kosovo signed to implement in 2013 and still refuses to do.
@@GothJuice For their right to have autonomy in the form of an association of Serb municipalities, a thing Kosovo signed to implement in 2013 and still refuses to do.
to be honest, the one who will fight the Taliban wont be the Iranian government, it will be the Iranian people. There is a mandatory military service in Iran. And they usually send the soldiers from poor families to the border with Afghanistan. All of the soldiers who have died in skirmishes were 18 yo kids from rural poor areas with basically no training

Once more I am driven to cackling laughter by the hilarity of Intra-European racism
some context for the western response to this situation. it's well known that the EU and lately US have been appeasing serbia to deescalate situations that are constantly caused by serb ethnonationalists. the serbian president has had some rapport with the EU lately around EU membership while also trying to cater to his right-wing prorussian voters. even without the former, the default western stance toward constant serb provocations has been lazy and short-sighted appeasement of the big bully as the seemingly easiest way to deescalate. meanwhile velikosrbi block institutions in kosovo, bosnia, and montenegro, and make progress in these countries impossible. the serb member of the bosnian presidency has been threatening to place serb militias at the borders of the serbian province 'republika srpska' (which they gained after dayton as a reward for ethnic cleansing) for months. never allow propaganda and relativization from the left or right to diminish the overwhelming persistence and malice of serbian ethnonationalism in this region
I hate to be that guy but I'm pretty sure it's détente not dayton.

What’s the Soviet-Afghan War podcast Vaush was talking about? Would love to give it a listen
I'm one of the Serbs who supports Kosovo independence, I just want to provide my input here, for anyone who may care:
- Serbs boycotted elections because Kosovo refuses to implement Brussels agreement from 2013 that it signed into, which will basically create small Republic of Srpska (entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina), I was even surprised why in the hell they signed this. Although current Kosovo government is right to refuse to implement it, that's not supposed to be how international relations work, if you sign onto something you cannot refuse to implement it, especially if you are minor country like Kosovo and Serbia are
- Political leadership of Serbs in north Kosovo is basically criminal smugglers controlled and financed by Belgrade, who are using violence to silence opposition and citizens that are against them
- That's why when Belgrade orders boycott nobody will go to elections because everyone is scared of those criminals
- Same criminals attacked NATO forces few days ago
imo best solution is for Kosovo to cede these 4 majority Serb cities to Serbia and for Serbia to cede Albanian majority towns to Kosovo, that is only way to lasting peace. It seems like there can be no coexistence for quite some time unfortunately
The Republic Srpska was a mistake and was NEVER going to work like what’s happening to Bosnia. I support Kosovo decision to NOT cuck-themselves. Lastly land switching isn’t going to work, Serbs for the most part don’t want “Small towns” they want all.
@@ado9255 I don't disagree with anything you said, I said what's best solution from my perspective ;)
I also support it and I also am a serb. We should just move on.
Wouldn't that fuck over albanian minorities on the majority Serb cities?
@@MrJiramaru lmao in north kosovo there are barley any Albanians anyway lmao.
The issues in the Balkans all stem from ancient racist tensions and hyper nationalism. This is a prime example of why I don’t oppose the idea of centralized government given that it’s controlled by the workers, because make no mistake, brutal suppression of nationalism from a strong central power is the only chance that part of the world has for peace. They did it once, and they can do it again.

The kosovar government have been blamed for the violience against the kfor soldiers… It’s easier for US and EU to twist the kosovar governments arm since kosovo has much more to lose. Serbia is a country whom’s borders and sovreignity is internationally recognized. They have nothing to lose.
And the motion that kosovo would commit some kind of genocide against serbs in kosovo is insane. They know serbia would invade and serbia is a much bigger country and has a much bigger and more developed army. The northern part of kosovo hasn’t payed energy bills since the war ended. The kosovar tax payers pay that Bill. They have free energy.
You mean Albanians whom left Albania brcause Hoxxca was alinged with China and extremley paranoid.
So in the 80s Albanians began to leave and became a majoroty in the early 90s and the Yugoslav war happened and some small Albanian rebel groups got helped by Albanin so Kosovo could become Eastern Albania.
And since both the Albanians and Croats (best friends of Serbia) are NATO members they should lead the efforts in Kosovo and there will ve no biases!
Albania was isolated. During communism in albania no one was allowed to flee the country (similar to North Korea) so albanians couldnt have fled to kosovo.
And even if that would be possible why would they flee to kosovo, the poorest region in Yugoslavia where albanians were always suppressed? Your false information doesnt make sense.
@@BatuKhan187 Are you aware that people flee North Korea, even though they are not allowed to do so? What a stupid comment. People sometime flee countries illegally.
And Albanians were not always suppressed. There was no ethnic discrimination in Yugoslavia under Tito.
@@Fray2221 only a few thousands albanians per year were able to flee the country during communism.
After communism fell about 800K albanians in almost a decade fled the countries like greece and italy immediatly. They werent able to do so during communism.
And yes, albanians were actively suppressed in Yugoslavia. Kosovo Was by far the poorest region in Yugoslavia, albanians had no political representation and were later even kicked out of every state institution, albanian schools were closed, Kosovo was stripped of its autonomy, they were economically segregated (which explains the 70% unemployment rate), they were victims of serbian propaganda that tried to depict them as evil islamist barbarian serb replacing monsters and serbs tried to colonize kosovo with serbs by trying to make life as hard as possible for albanians (there is a whole Wiki Page dedicated to the colonization of kosovo).
Stop trying to spread false propaganda.
Kosovar Serbs wanting autonomy is not reactionary or conservative or bad?? I don’t trust people who don’t support self determination- and Kosovar Serbs were very much the ones being oppressed??
The kosovar government has given serbia 200 times the offer to take the northern part of kosovo for the eastern part of serbia where albanians live
Not gonna lie even if i agree this makes me kinda uncomfortable as a serb 💀💀💀💀
If in any of the official enemy countries 97% of an ethnic minority region boycotted regional elections, while the central government called the results of those elections democratic, all the libs would praise the brave resistance and ridicule the autocrats' inability to see that the actual democratic decision of basically every single person there was to tell them to go fuck themselves. And the would be kinda right. But of course Serbs were bombed by NATO before therefore they are eternally cursed to be in the wrong in any situation.
Me when Vaush does literally anything at all: Literally me fr
Balkans are like Velen in Witcher 3. Too many old gods.
25:27 I mean historically Iran has ruled the land of modern Afghanistan several times through history
Thes mfs literally shot theselves in the foot and blamed the closest person standing near them.
Vaush im a kosova albanian please add me to talk on this issue i speak fluent albanian
Then vaush what are your takes on the 2 invasions of iraq which saved millions of kurds from Saddam's ba'athist government.?
I don't understand the balance nationalism. They are neighbours and should be allies, given similarities in language and culture
I can confirm, former Yuga countries need to bicker all of the time until something explodes and then we all blame each other and shift responsibility. Thank fuck we made it into EU in 2004.
I think its kosovites not kosovars....or kosovans....
We already did refund the Taliban with the way we pulled out of Afghanistan leaving all of our equipment. That was two bone-headed a move to be accidental
Afghanistan might be less economically developed than north korea, but the Taliban aren't even close to being able to establish a totalitarian regime comparable to north korea.
Crazy how Persia is somehow the main enemy of the west after all these years
The Kosovo Serbs are in the right here, the Kosovo government refuses to treat the Serb population well. Plus the unironic anti Serb racism isn't cool.
We don't need to give more weapons to the taliban, they already have plenty of stuff that's been left behind.
And btw this is what happens to people when they're driving in Abrams tanks and IFVs all day long...you suddenly get this inexplicable urge to invade Iran, lol!!
Balkan nationalist is an oxymoron, idk how someone from the balkans can be proud of the country
Im from the balkans and many of the people are straight up completely indoctrinated when they're like 5 years old. They are told Kosovo is Serbia before they can even walk properly and they are taught false history that makes them seem like the victims and everyone out to get them.
I'm from Serbia and I don't know to actually I'm from republika srpska bit yeah.
Balkan nationalism isn't so much loving your country as it's hating other countries.
cause our history is much longer and more noble than yours
Ever heard of low IQ and lack of education?
top physicians and scientists need to study the serbian.
serb brain and the gavrilo 11c gene need WHO research.
Slavs will be Slavs.
26:24 I'd say they in order to define whether or how much a country is f'ed, food insecurity is a good indicator because people need to eat regardless of the religion of their leaders or of their type of government. There's also wars and stuff, but I think war correlates well enough with food insecurity, so that we can keep it as a single indicator.
In that regard, Afghanistan seems to be doing better than I thought, I didn't go in the details but depending on the map, if there is data for Afghanistan (and the fact that many maps don't have data for them is in itself concerning), they're doing marginally better than central African and Sahel countries, better also then Yemen and North Korea. Overall I'd say they're bottom D or maybe at worst in middle E tier, so not quite in F tier.
