Couldn't get around the sensationalism either. There was no war in Eastern Europe at large in '94. There were the Yugoslav/Balkan wars, but they were exclusively on the territory of former Yugoslavia. Especially the borders of Austria were never in danger, let alone the Austrian/Hungarian border. At it's early height there was the Ten-Day War in Slovenia in '91, which was the closest the war came to Western Europe and its magnitude was less of that of one month of the ongoing conflict in Donbass/Ukraine.
Even speaking of Hungary, which shares a border with Croatia, Slovenia, some with Serbia further south east[corrected], but not Bosnia the situation was tense but not war-torn. The peak of the Croatian part of the Yugoslav wars was over with the 1992 ceasefire.

- foobarian 12y agoHungary does share a border with Serbia, though whether you consider Vojvodina Serbia or not could be debated.
