Slovenia
1991 · The "Ten-Day War" in Slovenia — the first war of Yugoslavia's dissolution.
Argyris Dinopoulos covered all the wars in the former Yugoslavia, first on assignment for SKAI 100.4 FM and then for Antenna.
From March 1991 he was in Belgrade, when the (initially political) process of the dissolution of Federal Yugoslavia began, with the deadlock over the election of the Federation's collective presidency.
In June 1991 he covered the (limited in its fighting) "Ten-Day War" in Slovenia, which ended on 7 July 1991 in the Brioni Agreement, in the withdrawal of the federal Yugoslav army from Slovenia, in the declaration of its independence and in its recognition as an independent state by the European Union on 15 January 1992.
It was the beginning of the Yugoslav tragedy and the last war in twentieth-century Europe.
