lol you think the Cold War had nothing to do with the collapse of Yugoslavia? Or that the Cold War was easy for the US to win?
okay bud
Yugoslavia was literally and directly backed by the US to oppose the Soviets and when the USSR was defeated Yugoslavia also broke up. It didn't all happen at the same time, of course, but those things are pretty obviously connected. Or do you think that was a coincidence?
Yugoslavia was being propped up as a buffer state by both sides (more the US than the USSR but they both contributed) and once the Cold War became irrelevant there wasn't anyone propping them up. That's it.
You're the one blaming communism for some reason lol
