Yugoslavia after Tito: Certain Uncertainty.

Abstract

This memorandum considers the future of Yugoslavia after the passing of Tito. The author contends that the most critical aspects of internal affairs that face Yugoslavia are the complex ethnic minority problems that will impact upon, if not determine, the outcome of the succession. The author asserts that the Soviets may be expected to exert their influence. He concludes that covert effort will be accelerated in an effort to precipitate either an internal realignment to the Soviet bloc peacefully or to encourage minority strife so as to justify intervention by Soviet bloc neighbors under pretense of protecting their ethnic minority brethren.
