Prior to 2018, the standard talking point for most Western
governments toward the Balkans was fully consistent with the ideal
of a Europe “whole, free, and at peace:” that no further pursuit of
border changes or ethnoterritorialism would be permitted. Equality
of citizens and acceptance of the historical reality of
multiethnicity throughout the Western Balkans was presented not only
as a prerequisite to Euro-Atlantic integration, but a requirement
for maintenance of peace and comprehensive security after a series
of wars left over 130,000 people dead in the span of a decade.
For well over a decade before 2018, the West’s policies in the
region remained on bureaucratic autopilot – formally committed to
Copenhagen criteria and liberal democratic values and standards, but
increasingly distracted and defaulting to formalism and
transactionalism with local elites. This zombie policy allowed NATO
and EU enlargement without true resolution of outstanding disputes
with neighbors. This error was raised at the time – and its effects
can be seen now.
An inherently polarizing national authoritarian populism reminiscent
of that seen in the former Yugoslavia beginning in the late 1980s
became increasingly apparent among a number of EU member states and
in the US with the election of Donald Trump. This cocktail of
factors accelerated the negative trajectory of democracy in the
Western Balkans. The only positive in this period – a breakthrough,
now largely squandered in North Macedonia – came not because of the
West’s policy, but despite it. Popular pressure forced the EU and US
off the fence to compel Gruevski to new elections, then to accede to
the results.
The embrace of the proposed partition of Kosovo made in summer 2018
by Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and his Kosovar counterpart
Hashim Thaçi – marketed variously as “land swap,” “demarcation,” and
“border correction” – first by the EU’s Federica Mogherini, then by
the US government, deviated from nearly two decades of transatlantic
(and in America’s case, bipartisan) policy. Unfulfilled nationalist
agendas regionwide immediately took note; florid ethno-nationalist
dreams never disappeared in the Balkans; they had been suppressed
and deterred by a West that hoped the EU enlargement process would
obviate the need for deterrence. Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik
had long advocated state dissolution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, so
readily used the new talking point. Vučić pointedly spoke of the
need for good relations among “Serbs and Albanians,” with the clear
implications that the borders in the region are not sacrosanct, but
negotiable.
This is currently visible in the joint EU and US policy in Bosnia
and Herzegovina, where – camouflaged in talk about election
integrity – an effort to “amend the election law” is actually also
about internal border demarcations and granting HDZ leader Dragan
Čović his long-articulated dream of a de facto or de jure Croat
third entity – the ethno-territorial holy grail of divisive
nationalists. Even worse, the Western (EU/US/UK) support for this is
using the Sejdić-Finci, Zornić, and Pilav cases as talking points,
even though these rulings compel BiH to open the political space,
not to tighten the feudal order. Croatia has made itself felt
throughout this debate to press Croat ethno-territorial claims
within BiH. The non-paper, Croatia put forward with illiberals
Bulgaria, Hungary, and Slovenia, together with Greece, menacingly
links state dysfunction (promised Čović and Dodik deliverables) to
EU border control, to further inflame right and far-right fears of
migrants and asylum seekers.
As a direct result of this morally rudderless policy, in the past
week, we reached a new low. While the veracity of the document is
still hotly disputed, an alleged “non-paper” put forward by
Slovenian Prime Minister Janez Janša proposes the unification of
Albanians, Serbs, and Croats in the region, partitioning BiH, North
Macedonia, and Kosovo, but leaving Montenegro curiously unscathed,
and not touching Serbia’s Sandžak. Whatever the provenance of the
“non-paper,” there is no doubt a sincere cohort of adherents to such
ethno-nationalist agendas. The first-order intent may be to make
changes below this threshold seem more reasonable. But nobody should
be fooled into belief that attempts to achieve these ends could be
done without massive violence and forced population movements. Many
on the “wrong side” of existing and projected lines on maps are
vulnerable – and know it.
Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama – self-styled national chieftain
and one of the likely beneficiaries of such a carve-up – claims to
have discussed the “non-paper” with Janša. It is important that such
a proposal be denied and rejected, or confirmed by the EU Commission
President and EU Council President. If it was indeed genuine, then
Slovenia’s upcoming presidency should be called into question, as it
would be delusional to believe that there would not be moral,
reputational, and material impact on the EU’s security during its
leadership tenure.
There is still time for the US and EU to arrest the current
trajectory, which would eventually end in violence. But only a
willingness to confront the reality of a failed policy to date can
achieve this – at the commanding heights of government.
Reinforcement of the deterrent forces in the region (EUFOR and KFOR)
to credible strength and mobility is long overdue to ensure a vision
of values-based comprehensive security is not simply rhetorical.
We, the signatories, representing civil society, academia, and
concerned citizens from throughout the region and beyond – including
citizens of the EU and US – implore Presidents Biden, von der Leyen,
and Michel, and Secretary General Stoltenberg, as well as heads of
government of leading EU and NATO member states to recognize the
clear and present danger yielded by their current policies and to
recalibrate them accordingly.
