The Balkans, home to many civilizations for thousands of years have two important features.: first, the foundations of Western philosophy were laid here and secondly this peninsula is the junction between Asia, Middle East and Europe. At the same time, Balkans made a great contribution to the world of thought, an and politics of the Ottoman Empire. From this perspective, this peninsula Is at the center of existence for Europe, civilization for the Ottoman Empire and Russian desire to gain access to warm waters.
Understanding and attaching importance to this geography, which has huge philosophical and strategic significance, is highly important for three continents. Balkans is not an area of satisfaction with nostalgic emotions for any country; but instead is the cradle of security and stability for many. Therefore, any kind of strategic act originating from Europe, Asia and Middle East is moderated or rendered as conflict in the Balkans.
Having a cross-continental position, peace at the Balkans means peace at many countries. Establishing peace and stability at the Balkans is quite easy from one perspective, yet is highly difficult. Different cultures living in harmony, there is a superior common life awareness in this geography and if kept alive this culture brings peace but if destroyed, conflict is Inevitable.
We hope that, being aware of their own values; Balkan countries protect this common life culture dating back to hundreds of years .
