German and US involvement in the Balkans: A careful coincidence of national policies?

Presented at the Symposium on the Balkan War: 'Yugoslavia: Past and Present'. Chicago, August 31-September 1, 1995

Introduction

On June 12, 1994, US President William Clinton made a 'symbolic' speech at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin in which he made it clear to the world that a reunited Germany was the United States key European Partner in bringing about a new world order. At associated meetings he referred to Chancellor Hemut Kohl as: "Helmut is my principal partner in Europe"... and "A reunited Germany will be the leader of a united Europe". President Clinton projected a vision of a reunited, rebuilt Berlin as the centre of united Europe with Germany moving the continent forward in peace and economic progress.

The facts however deny the realisation of such a Utopean vision. Many European leaders and analysts have noted that Germany's actions since the fall of the Berlin Wall have been largely self-serving and frequently destablizing within Europe, rather than furthering European unity and continental stability. The hundreds of thousands of people killed, maimed, made homeless and turned into refugees in the former Yugoslavia bear witness to Germany's apparent agenda in the Balkans, aided both wittingly and unwittingly since 1991 by two successive US Governments.

The economy of the Balkans has been put back at least 30 years, and enough new hatred generated to last for decades. Far from being a forward looking foreign policy as projected by President Clinton, Germany has reverted to some of its traditional strategic goals, albeit presented in a modern idiom. If new maps were to be produced of Europe which depict current zones of German economic dominance and military influence, they would bear a striking similarity to maps of the Holy Roman Empire, and, more recently, to those made a temporary reality by Adolf Hitler's Third Reich in the 1940s.

However, south of the "German Zone", in a swathe which runs from Albania in the West through Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldavia to the Ukraine in the East, is another zone to which the United States is paying special attention. It appears that the US Government views this southern belt as its area of economic interest. It is not yet certain whether there is an agreement between Germany and the US to carve Europe into two main zones, but there is strong circumstantial evidence from their actions in the Balkans and in the Southern belt to support the supposition of carving up of Europe by two superpowers of the next century.
