    Default Greek–Yugoslav confederation

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek%..._confederation

    Greek-Yugoslav (con)federation[a] or Balkan Union was a political concept during World War II, sponsored by the United Kingdom, and involving the Yugoslav government-in-exile and Greek government-in-exile.

    The Greek and Yugoslav governments-in-exile negotiated the conditions of the agreement until the end of 1941. The agreement was signed by Slobodan Jovanović and Emmanouil Tsouderos[4] on the ceremony held in British Foreign Office, presided by the British minister of foreign affairs Anthony Eden. It was explicitly stated in the agreement that both Yugoslav and Greek governments looked forward to accede other countries of the Balkans to the Union.,[5] quoted in Wheeler (1980, pp. 157–8) Although caution was advised with revealing the hope that Bulgaria and Romania would join this union, on 4 February 1942 Eden stated in the House of Commons that the treaty signed between Yugoslavia and Greece was definitively going to be a basis for the establishment of the Balkan confederation.


    The Greek-Yugoslav Confederation was to have been a first step toward a larger Balkan Union, which would also have included Albania, Romania and Bulgaria.[1] Encouraged by the British Foreign Office, together with the Polish-Czechoslovak confederation, they were to form a West-aligned organization of states between Germany and the Soviet Union.[1][6][7] The Greek and Yugoslavian governments-in-exile signed an agreement on January 1942 in which they agreed to form a political, economic and military union, with the motto "The Balkans for the Balkan People". Their respective monarchies were to be unified with the marriage of King Peter of Yugoslavia to Princess Alexandra of Greece.[1] The union was to be finalized after the war.

    It might have worked between Yugoslavia and Greece. Yugoslavia was a highly advanced state.

    But Romania and Bulgaria were too communist and Albania was living in stone age back then. It wouldn't have worked.

    Yeah, Tito liked this idea and he was going to swallow Greece. In order to realise this plan, he put greeks to kill each other. It's called greek civil war. Really interesting moment of history.

    Cooperation prequisites civility, like respect for signed treaties and respect for the territorial integrity of other countries. You cannot cooperate with a country that still has a Muslim Turkalbanian mentality, for the same reason cooperation with Turkey has been impossible.

    Our neighbours are ungrateful never doubt it.

    When I was in Greece in July last year going again this year - Thessaloniki and Halkidiki was full of Fyromskis.. like heaps of them....

    I do not believe this cofederation will work - vast majority of Balkanites need to come out of the closet to embrace their Hellenic roots it is not healthy for the state of mind trying to be someone you are not.
    “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Eph. 6:12

    Definition of untrustworthy and loose character are those that don't believe in God.

    Eleftherios Venizelos on the 10th of May 1933, in a meeting of the Committee of the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs, declared and repeated three times the following: "One day will come when we will create with Turkey an Eastern Federation".[9]
