I agree. I personally believe they will invade between 25 December - 2 January or they won't. The West is on Holiday and the Onicron lockdown in Europe is in full swing. Making any invasion attempt ideal as it would take a longer time for Western governments to react to it.

You are incorrectly assuming that Russia is A) Planning to invade the whole of Ukraine & B) you are negating the potential involvement of forces from Belarus, Transnistria, Wagner mercenaries & finally reservists as relief troops in any up coming conflict. To cut a long story short Russia's...

btw could mods please create a Balkan Nations Defence Forum? I find that alot of military talk is lost in the shuffle in Europe section which is more geopolitically orientated.

This deal is game changer for Croatia And much better than the cancelled F-16 Barak that was supposed to go through with Israel before the US congress blocked it By 2024 Croatian Air Force will be one of the strongest in the region (only Romania would be better) and along with a fleet of 15...

There are many things Izetbegovic can be blamed for but that's not one of them. He dithered on certain issues but I will go into that later. Bosniaks had a lot of left over commie traitor influence coming into the war in 1991/1992 that left them unprepared and vulnerable to being massacred. The...

I sincerely hope he forms his "army" of Republika Srpska. The current Armed Forces of Bosnia is a joke and the Serbian regiments and brigades would defect and take any equipment they can from bases in the space of 24 hours should a conflict arise. I would rather have him create his Army and...

Thread should be renamed to Balkan Tensions or a new one created instead...

I would like to see Bosnia & Azerbaijan work together on development of Artillery systems, rockets and drones. Azerbaijan has great tech at the moment but how much is domestic produced? I think both countries can benefit immensely through defence cooperation. Bosnia has developed its own 40km...

Ukraine has an Armed Forces of 209 000 personnel + 900 000 Reservists who can be called up should the need arise On top of that they have a paramilitary/special police/volunteer militia force of 102 000 Which means that in an event of an unlikely full blown Russian invasion Ukraine could...

This is anecdotal hubris. The majority of Albanians support Turkey & vice versa. The friendly and somewhat brotherly relations between two countries have gone on for over a hundred years. I am sure there are even factual statistics out there which can be searched online that prove it. and lol...

If Serbia does anything it would be a limited invasion of the North using Russian hybrid model. Patchless Soldiers, proxy army and Artillery support + drone support from Serbia itself. Kosovo has a small army of it's own beside the ROSU special police but they lack heavy armour & artillery. Not...

I don't think it's a game. Something serious is at work. "illegal pharmacy products" is just a cover. Northern Kosovo is crawling with Russian GRU & Serbian BIA agents. Kosovan special police probably wanted to arrest some individuals or gather some materials as evidence but the operation ended...

lol so you base your political support on what a few basement dwellers (who probably have never been to Albania in their lives) write online? How Childish.

Your post comes from a completely emotional and narrow minded view point of European Realpolitik and French Military power.

This is a good move by France and the Europeans (EU Countries) in general. For them of course. Because unfortunately I can see this alliance being anti-Turkey in nature. President Macron will be the main political leader in Europe when Merkel leaves office and both him and France will take a...

yep and so does Pakistan deserve the right to protect its people from Taliban and Pashtun extremist groups that use violence to intimidate and murder people oppossed to their rule - from Pashtuns, Punjabis, Balochs and everyday Pakistani citizens Remember what happened to Malala Yousefzai?

lol dude in your previous post you literally said this lol: It's funny how whenever I criticize the Taliban for their atrocities you get defensive and the other Dalit guy starts to bring up my race as though I am not allowed to speak about what is happening in Afghanistan. What an asinine...

right okay... So nothing wrong with me shooting someone if everyone on my street does it.. btw I wonder how "Islamic" is that? Did Prophet Muhammed PBUH instruct Muslims to act like this and copy the ways of their enemies?

Did I even mention Pakistan in a negative light in any of my posts? My problem is with the Talibans past actions and lack of ownership over them. Taliban extremists have caused havoc in both Afghanistsan and Pakistan. Remember what happened to Malala Yousefzai?

Do I agree with Northern Alliance strategically setting up ties with India? No. Is Tajikistans close ties to India worrisime? Yes I do agree. I always thought they should work out a deal with Pakistan to set up some sort of Power Sharing structure in Afghanistan. However the Taliban seem to...
