Of course. Here's hoping the ongoing war in the Balkans ends soon and peoples in the region can have peaceful relations. You know, like North and South Korea. Or Ukraine and Russia. Or Israel and Palestine.
And if any of this doesn't make sense, I suggest you look up the history of the Yugoslavian automotive industry before and after the fall of the SFRY. Then it'll all fall into place. Unless you're in the Balkans, in which case you wouldn't be reading this because you don't have access to the internet. Unironically.
We've been tantalizingly close to a break through in North / South tensions. Hopefully, the collapse of the Yoon government means reconciliations can continue.
But one thing you don't see is terror attacks along the border. That's critical to a future reconciliation.
No doubt, there is a clear and unmistakable trend toward demilitirazation and reducing nuclear tensions on the Korean Peninsula these past few years.
The real issue is Serbia testing ICBMs and threatening Romania with nuclear warfare. Apparently the secret biological experiments the US has been conducting on Vucic are making him go crazy. Textbook example of a strategy of tension.
Reality truly is stranger than fiction.
Ah, yes. The Serbian space program.
They'll be sending their first satellite into orbit soon. You'd think they'd need basic utilities to do that but no - its all held together by duct tape and wishful thinking.
With the help of their neighbors in Bosnia, Croatia, Macedonia, and Montenegro, it seems. Amazing what Slavs can do when they're united, rather than at each others' throats.
Okay, now repeat that in Korean.
