Report Urges Permanent US Military Presence in Balkans

A permanent US military presence in south-east Europe is necessary to stabilise the region, argues a report by Washington-based think-tank the Atlantic Council, which also warns of increased Russian attempts to exert influence.

The report entitled ‘Balkans Forward: A New US Strategy for the Region’, published by the Atlantic Council on Tuesday, calls for a permanent American military presence in the Balkans, a "historic rapproachment" between the US and Serbia, and for the US to regain its reputation as an "honest broker".

The report warns that Balkan countries’ weak state institutions have been strained by the flow of migrants and refugees, while persistent unemployment, political gridlock and pervasive corruption, present "a recipe for the radicalisation of the region’s young Muslim population".

If a region is not stable enough without US presence, then a war needs to happen, the winner needs to take control and implement there solutions to the problems in the region.  If you are not happy with those solutions, either move or fight.
