if the yugoslav communists had been more loyal to their comrades in Moscow and greek civil war had been decided in the favor of communists then what effect this would have had on the warsaw pact ?
Much better position for them in the Mediterranean. Might have contributed to Turkey going communist as well, which would have given the Russkies inroads into the wider Middle East.
Good question !Which Greek Civil War are we referring to here; the one after the German garrison withdrew or the Post War Civil War?
The difference is significant.
They might freak out but what can they do to actively prevent that ?Moscow might take steps to keep Greece out in that situation, the widely agreed-upon deal was that Greece was a no-no for the Soviets, that cuts off a very geographically important point in Southern Europe that then goes to the communists, the West will positively FREAK OUT if Greece makes a move towards Moscow.

Maybe encourage Turkey to attack Greece
