- The Ten-Day War between Yugoslavia and Slovenia continues. Slovenia and Croatia have declared their independence from Yugoslavia and the Yugoslav military is asserting itself. The Yugoslav airfare dropped bombs on the Slovenians one week after their declaration of independence. Slovenian independence fighters struggle for their freedom from Yugoslavia.
The US Bush Administration is trying to keep up with what is happening and form a US policy on this war.
Imagine if you are an every day Austrian, you live your mundane civil life in the outskirts of a town on the border in one of the most stable countries of the world. And a war is taking place at a few hundred meters from your house.
That Austrian might live in Bad Radkersburg lmao
@@alengrm7488 i googled it before with help of info online and google maps, it could be that place
Check out this video. It's basically the exact thing you0re describing. An austrian took footage during the war in Bad Radkersburg, which is a twin town of the Slovenian Gornja Radgona... Basically one town split apart by only a river. czcams.com/video/NzFdKzti6hw/video.html It is a kinda eeire and surreal feeling. Living in a peacuful town, while literally just stone throw away (the combat took place for the border post) people are killing each other.
@@radgoncan Thank you, it was what I was looking for. I have a fascination for international borders that divide conflict areas from peaceful ones where one civilian is pretty much safe while other people literally seek shelter in a ditch no more than 3 stone's throws away because it seems such an unreal scenario.
So far I know a few examples:
-Yugoslavija conflict bordering Italy and Austria, '91
-The Netherlands bordering Belgium, ww1
-Turkey and Israel bordering Syria especially Kobane, Syrian Civil war
-US bordering Mexico during it's civil war
-Possibly Tanzania during the Rwanda massacre, '94
-Switserland during the airraids on Germany, ww2
-Sweden during the invasion of Denmark and Norway, ww2
-Possibly Thailand during the reign of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia
@@alengrm7488 I am from Bad Radkersburg lol
Today I am an editor for a publishing house in Germany, I am married and have a child. But that August of 1991, I was an 11-year-old boy hiding in my grandparents Anna and Anator's basement. They lived in the countryside, in Trbovlje. And I spent summer vacations with them. The war took us by surprise. My grandfather had to go out to look for my uncle Tüvia who was with the reservists on the road. My grandmother Anna, a woman of 61 at the time, had a gun and sat on the stairs and we talked for hours. The war was over in 10 days and I went back to Ljubljana to find my parents. Fortunately, everything ended well for us and no one close to us died. Then the European Union welcomed us and today we live very well!
Zivela Slovenija, Zivela Hrvaska, mi smo bratje.
Nacisti
@@duramajin3118? Kdo je nacist?
Živjela Hrvatska, živjela Slovenija. Braća smo zauvijek!
Hrvatska & Slovenija - dvije prijateljske zemlje koje granice i koje NIKADA u svojoj povijesti nisu ratovale, to je ne samo Europski nego i svjetski fenomen. Zivjelo Hrvatsko-Slovensko prijateljstvo!

What a news time ! Topics: dissolvement of yugoslavia, internal chaos within USSR, nuclear weapons in IRAQ. Breathtaking :)
And to think that things today feel worse. Iraq had Iraq war and ISIS, Russia at war with Ukraine, tensions brewing up again between Serbia and Kosovo.

We destroyed them
@@lux637 yes we did
Slovenes had balls to do it.
If I were born in these days too.😪
I wish yugoslavia never collapsed. I wish i could drive from Macedonia to Slovenia without waiting at three border crossings :(
It was doomed to fail. Tito took so much debt it was impossible to pay back.
I wish I could travel to Macedonia as a Bulgarian without being hated
