There are multiple reasons for the breakup, bad economics, as it's mentioned in the report, overwhelming bureaucracy, deep systematic corruption and the rise of Ronald Reagan, a communist hater, who influenced international institutions not to help Yugoslavia to overcome its economic crisis. The growing nationalism wasn't the reason, it was a tool to destroy the country and robbing it. Tito is for sure a disputable politician, for without a doubt he was the greatest politician in the regions history and one of the greatest politicians in the world of his time, considered his funeral. And if he was corrupt, like many say, how come his grandson is a cab driver in Belgrade.?
I lived in Slovenia and the war did not affect us. Even so, it was difficult for me to grow up watching the country of my childhood being destroyed through newspapers and television.
An alleged letter Tito sent to Stalin: "Stop sending me your assassins, we caught them all. Otherwise I will send you one and there won't be a second one to be sent"
i think it was "Stalin stop sending assassins to kill me, we already have got one with a bomb and another with a gun, if you dont stop sending assassins then ill send one to Moscow and i wont have to send another" or something similar
I grew up during the transition from communism in Slovenia, the only republic that did not participate in the war. I love my country and today we live much better financially. But I feel bad about the way Yugoslavia ended. It was such a beautiful country, with such kind and united people, especially patriotic. We were very proud of our anthem, our history of resistance against the Germans and even our football team. And to think that in the end people would end up killing themselves in the streets I watched the war on television and what we saw was true belief. It was impossible to think that our people would be capable of committing so many atrocities. My cousin, Ducana, who lived in Sarajevo. She had to flee with her son to Slovenia to avoid being killed by her own neighbors, who were Serbs. Including her husband's family.
Goes to show that Socialism and government interference in economies ALWAYS fails. It takes years to malfunction and until that day happens, the previous regime is always viewed as the innocent ones. But, they built the failures over time.
@@biagingerI refer to the Bosnian war. The Ten Day War was more a war of threats than a bloody war. Yes, my eldest brother and his friends were called up to fight, but they didn't fight with the federation army. Everything was congested, without light and planes cutting across the oasis. It was scary, but it doesn't compare to what happened in Bosnia, Croatia and Serbia.
Say that to the hundreds of thousands of his victims, many of whom were buried alive in thousands of POST WW2 mass graves in Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and elsewhere.
@@saccorhytus you mean the fact that the vast majority of those buried people were actually innocent, never convicted and found guilty of any crimes. Since when were women, children and old people Ustaša or Domobranci nationalists? My parents vividly remember people all of a sudden disappearing and ending up in those mass graves around Celje, Maribor and Kočevje simply because the communist revolutionary regime deemed them to be enemies of the state because they dared to criticise the new order. Wake up to yourself.
Tito's obvious big mistake was thinking Yugoslavia could live on high credits and a huge dept indefinitely and that both the major powers would always prop up Yugoslavia with generous loans and services to keep them from joining the other side. When *any* country faces severe economic hardship it will begin to support extremists and start pointing fingers as any "scapegoat" to blame everything on. Would we have seen Hitler and the nazis in Germany if not for the Versailles Treaty and the Great Depression (struck Germany particularly hard because it was highly dependent on trade and trade ground down to a worldwide halt) ? Once the Soviet Union was going bankrupt in the 80's it could barely sustain itself much less provide Yugoslavia with trade or services. Meanwhile Germany needed all its money to prop up East-Germany once they were re-united. Who else were going to invest in Yugoslavia at this time? A good successor might have bought Yugoslavia some time but without the economic foundations to survive the people still go berserk. Besides, even if he had groomed a successor it's very likely that one would live in his shadow even after his death and people would constantly compare him with his "great predecessor". Tito could always rely on the great cult of personality which followed him. Any successor would't have this huge advantage. The only way this could possibly have worked is if a successor was groomed for a good decade or more making people warm up to him and accepting him as the "next at the helm". Considered the severe difficulties Yugoslavia faced this successor would have had to be a seriously charming, astute and competent man. In other words what he faces is a serious challenge given the economic climate.
I just recently started learning about Yugoslavia. As an American, I'm actually quite envious of the country they built. I'm not a communist or a capitalist. I don’t think too mucb of ideologies in general, but I now have a respect for what Yugoslavia was and what it stood for. Hopefully a country sych as that can emerge once again someday.
Tito was smart but also a moron. He was convinced that the global financial system would collapse before he died. Hence the massive loans from the IMF, knowing full well there was no chance of paying bsck
We should just vote and wait for change, conform, and all will fall in place as the Kabbalah preaches, never do any real action, blindly follow/worship the rabbis and TV...
Education in foreign languages was a must in all of Yugoslavia, specially later as more professors of those languages were available (they were a scarcity since prosperous enterprises offered much better wages, housing and general working conditions than the education system did...being a professor was a respected position, but not one of wealth, while being a translator in an international corporation that produces eg. howitzers ensured you a good apartment, one month vacation at the company's resort at sea, and a 1200-1500 DEM net monthly wage) Usually primary schools were designed to service about 750-800 students in 8 grades (from age 7 to 14), each generation was about 3 classes of 30-35 students, and one of those classes learned Russian, one learned English and the latter German. In the areas near the Italian border, that one was added too alongside the first foreign language.....the eastern part of the country had a more dominant side of Russian language, while in the west (northwest Croatia and Slovenia) German was more dominant alongside English. In middle school you studied English + the language you got to study in the primary school. In university, some degrees had foreign language studies, some didn't. Add to that Slovenian and Macedonian alongside SerboCroatian, as well as Hungarian and Albanian (in certain parts of the country).....the people were very well educated. In my hometown, of about 25.000 people, there was even a French language class in the middle school, since we produced heavy weapons (artillery, mortars and rocket systems) and French-speaking Africa was quite a market for us.
« Traffic controller »? At 11:15...He isn’t a « traffic controller » but more likely a Parking Attendant checking on parking payments made and whether some had overstayed their time...

Unless he does both jobs....and has described his employment by the better sounding title...which I doubt, he looks too intelligent and honest for that vanity.

I am extremely sorry for Yugoslavs who saw their great country break apart in a tragic way.

Still today, Tito is a superstar.

He was right !!! People still miss him !
Tito left the Yugoslavians 40 years ago today
Tito was a legend.
I ostaće legenda zauvek. Takav se više ne radja na ovom prostoru Balkana, bar ne u skorije vreme.

Milosevic exploited the Kosovo problem, grabbed that low hanging fruit. Then destroyed the country. This footage is good foreshadowing.

Tito obvious big mistake was never grooming a successors. Yugoslavia needed strong top down leadership to hold the federation together.
