description With the reference to a wide range of military and diplomatic sources, the author shows the connection between the existence of a direct military threat and the Yugoslav approach to the Balkan Pact. The work contains an overview of the military-strategic situation. The article also analyzes the threats to the national security of Yugoslavia and their impact on the creation of a militarypolitical alliance on the real military situation in the Balkans.For the first time, relying on archival sources, the author investigates in detail the Soviet-Yugoslav conflict, which is placed in the broader context of international relations that developed around the Balkans.The Soviet-Yugoslav confrontation grew out of an inter-party clash and turned into an inter-state conflict. One of the main problems of the article is the question of preparing the Soviet aggression against Yugoslavia. The plans of the USSR are analyzed in detail by the author using the intelligence data of the Yugoslav headquarters. It was planned to compensate for the weakness and poor technical equipment of the Yugoslav army with a partisan war. However, this was not enough. The authorities of Yugoslavia had to enter into negotiations with the United States, which planned to use the republic in the fight against the USSR. After the negotiations, Yugoslavia was provided with significant assistance - military and economic. In the context of these same events, the Balkan Pact was created, which led to an increase in military supplies from the West for the Yugoslav, Greek and Turkish armies so that they could withstand a possible attack by the Soviet Union and its allies.
