SECURITY RISKS AND THREATS – AN OVERVIEW OF FROZEN CONFLICTS IN SOUTH-EASTERN EUROPE

Summary/Abstract: South-Eastern Europe, which Europe’s geostrategic node, has been and will continue to be in the future an area of confrontation of major interests. Therefore, there is always a risk of resuming the politics of exclusive influence and confrontations in this region. In spite of the fact that inter-ethnical intolerance is invoked as a cause of conflicts – which is true, in fact – there are also other aspects that sustain a high level of instability and conflict in south-eastern Europe. By means of the current great powers’ direct involvement in this area’s geopolitical issues, the regional security has a major impact upon Europe’s security as a whole, as well as upon the Euro-Atlantic and world’s security in general.
