Summary/Abstract: The last year resurged older concerns about stability in the Balkans, especially due to the relation between Serbia and Kosovo, which only grew in intensity up to present. Recently, new typologies for the security risks could be noticed in the Balkan area, along with the potential for biunivocal influence between the Balkan area and the war in Ukraine. The potential of the Russian influence in the Balkan region remains difficult to estimate, especially when superposed on a double-discourse and double-interests game played by the main actors which still need to settle older divergences in relation to their own statality. Despite the international call for appeasing any spark in the security of the region, the situation appears like a pop it game which can be aggravated by shifts in the political narrative appealing for the local society.
