I find it incredibly interesting that so many Balkan "nationalist" groups are being purposefully coupled to the label "Pro-Israel"
Case in point; a headline from "Hungarian Conservative"
When Israeli cities burned and much of Europe hid behind legalese, it was Serbia loading pallets of 155 mm shells, the Czech Republic dispatching armour plates, and Hungary vetoing hostile resolutions and defending Israel on the world stage. They may not be Europeโs largest economies or loudest voices, but they acted decisively when it mattered most.
I must have missed something in history where Israeli Jews were beneficial allies to the stability of the Balkans; as opposed to the current reality where ....

Israelis are arming both Serbs and Albanians.

Greek-American US General Andrew Poppas, in an interview with journalist Christos Mazanitis and Realnews, spoke about the special relationship of the US military with Greece, in relation to all the plans that exist in Europe against Russia.
He said: "The US strategic relationship with Greece has been built and is deep over time," he tells us, adding that Greece is located in a strategic geographical location.
At the crossroads of Europe with the Middle East and Africa. Having an ally with the strength and determination of Greece, with whom we walk and fight together, we have common visions. And most importantly, our culture is based on the culture of Greece. So looking back at the strategic relationship we have, one sees the strong foundations. And this continues to grow today.
Your Army is in close cooperation with American forces in Europe. Even when our forces need to be moved to the north of Europe, this is done through Greece. Our plans go through Greece. The ports, the facilities and the support you provide, as well as the security on the southern borders, are an important part of the relationship we have.โ
Greece's relationship with the US is well-known, since American forces are stationed in several places in our country, while Alexandroupolis is the gateway that welcomes foreign troops on their way to the Balkans and Europe.
