Summary/Abstract: The question of the possible Soviet – Satellite military intervention against Tito’s Yugoslavia after the Resolution of the Cominform in June 1948 represents one of the often mentioned, but not researched episodes of the Cold War. After realising the seriosnes of the conflict Yugoslav leadership started to prepare its country for defense. Although, it is still unknown weather the USSR had prepared war plan against Yugoslavia, during following years on the Yugoslav borders an intelligence conflict has been going on and numerous measures were taken to strengthen the satellite armies. Through closer relations with the Western Powers, Yugoslavia has managed to stop the technical backwardness of its armed forces and to enter in shortliving military alliance with two Balkan NATO members – Greece and Turkey. The death of Josif Stalin has removed the danger of Soviet – Satellite intervention and opened a way towards the Yugoslav – Soviet reconciliation, but also towards the gradual drifting apart from the West and creation of original foreign policy.
