Lead

• In the first sentence, "... the rise of ethnic tensions that led to the breakup of Yugoslavia" implied that the rise of ethnic tensions was the, or at least one of the main causes for the breakup of Yugoslavia. This is (far too) oversimplifying, it is not correct and it is misleading. I've changed it to "the development that led to ..." - the details can be found under Breakup of Yugoslavia.

BTW, the breakup of Yugoslavia was consequence of the decades of failures of the Communist regime on a broad front of issues and eventually breakup of the Communist League itself, but mainly by grave failure of Yugoslavian national economy which was accelerated by the fall of the Soviet union and other eastern block economies and consequently loss of a large market. The disaster was a consequence of several decades of errors and failures and was, at that point in time, inevitable. Multiple ethnic tensions were there for a long time, but their inflammation was far more a tool and a consequence than a cause. --Zzzrin (talk) 09:12, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
