North Macedonia republic.
Macedonia combines together with Thrace 3 greek states with 16 counties plus the independent mountain athos.
@MAXIMUSLOK
March 4, 2024 at 4:13 pm
Probably Montenegro and Moldova (united with Romania)
As for Serbia
Serb's trust only the Greeks and Cypriots in the EU so a possibility exists always if Croatia Hungary and Slovenia doesn't impose Veto;
A Serbian Greek Bulgarian Romanian and Montenegro corridor it's possible.

Kosovo is a Serbian country that is occupied by Albanian terrorists, it's a matter of time before the terrorists lose!

Why the hell would any of those nations join EU and NATO? No good would come out of making Sarajevo nuclear target for Russians or Chinese.

None of these countries will join the EU! EU is allready falling apart! And by the way, Kosovo is NOT a country, it's a Serbia's southern region!

Better question: which country will leave next?
@noname-mh1zv
March 4, 2024 at 4:13 pm
We will never join EU, that's a fact. We destroyed Austrian empire, got freedom and a big state only to be dissolved by the same enemies less than hundred years from WW1.
And to this day we suffer from internal criminal organisations, killed our king, killed our PM, basically ruled by mafia.
Currently i see no solution except to stale the situation until multi-polar world happens , with Russia/China as major powers, and then use military to secure stolen land of Kosovo, and probably escalate another conflict with muslims in Bosnia (divide it with Croats).
Even then, we're probably in for a treat from Russians, as throughout the history, Russians fucked us many times over, so i don't expect anything else from them.

We're hostages to the criminals in Serbia. That's all…normal people care about Kosovo too much , and our criminal goverment is using that to stay in power. If Serbia joined EU, goverment's corruption would be exposed and it would end the rule of mafia. Djindjic (our killed PM) tried that, and we know how he ended up…
And all this is coming from a real nationalist.
Kosovo is Serbia
P.S. We all know how Austria-Hungary, Ottoman empire and other enemies ended up…
