- carlosjobim 1y agoWere they allowed to leave? Usually the sign of the fairest and most humane systems of government and economy is when people get shot in the back by border guards if they try to escape.
- nradov 1y agoGenerally yes. Unlike Soviet occupied Eastern Europe, most regular people in Yugoslavia were able to obtain passports and travel internationally. There were some people barred from leaving or held as political prisoners.
- saubeidl 1y agoYes. The Yugoslav passport was the strongest in the world at the time - the only one you could freely travel both West and East with.
- selimthegrim 1y agoEver been to Cleveland or Pittsburgh or Chicago or Long Beach?
- WalterBright 1y agoGoogle says: "Between 1950 and 1989, approximately 73,000 people immigrated to the United States from Yugoslavia" I couldn't find any statistics of Americans leaving for Yugoslavia.
