Crossfire War=Rapid Fire News-Southeast Europe Theatre: "Serbia Will Be With Its People" Serbia President
Belgrade" "Whatever you do, Serbia will be with its people." B92 reports that was the final statement of Serbia President Alexandar Vucic speaking from the Serbia capital Belgrade in a message not just to Kosovo its southern province but also to Brussels headquarters to European Union-NATO. Most governments in both organizations supported the offensives directed at Serbia during the 1990's including the 78 day air offensive of 1999. Serbia and Bosnia were both forced into war in 1991 as Croatia declared its independence leading to the breakup of Yugoslavia and with Croatia's crooked-twisted boundary cut off Bosnia and Serbia from the Adriatic Sea.
Brussels also encouraged Serbia's south province Kosovo to declare its independence eagerly supported by Washington in order to provide more reasons for more weapons exports to this region. But two months ago the Pentagon was forced to establish a forward headquarters in Albania due to serious concerns heavy fighting is about to erupt again and on a larger scale than ever before.

1999 Serbia was alone but January 2001 serious fighting erupted further south in Macedonia caused by Albanian nationalists taking the war to Greece's border. Each year since 1991 war advanced further south not only toward Greece but approaching Turkey. Neither Athens-Ankara encouraged the division of Yugoslavia and they both realized the offensives directed at Serbia were in reality threatening the entire Balkan region as Brussels no longer represented regional stability but quite the opposite. Most NATO-EU governments were embracing Europe's historical hatred of the Balkan region something I thought had ended in 1945 with the end of World War II. It was Berlin that led the recognition of Croatia before 1991 ended then followed in 1992 by most NATO-EU governments including Washington.
2006 Greece-Iran signed security agreements with Serbia and in 2017 the Turkish news service Hurriyet Daily News reported the meeting in Ankara between the Iran-Turkey Army Chiefs of Staff. Turkey-Iran have had high level staff meetings since then. Teheran realized they can use this regional theatre as and avenue of invasion into Europe and a chance to silence Vienna the seat of the United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) which has been attempting to inspect Iran's underground enrichment of uranium to weapons grade level. And the IAEA would admit there were facilities they were never allowed to inspect.
The divided NATO alliance has no chance what so ever of responding effectively.
