Czechoslovakia guanrantee Yugoslavia?

[him_15]

HI all, I am on a historical Italy game (patch 1.5 with DLC). I normally attack Yugoslavia after finishing off my job in Africa, but this time I notice that Yugoslavia is guaranteed by Czechoslovakia! Hence If I DoW on Yugoslavia, the Czech would join into the war which is something I wouldn't want to happen.
My question is that is it something that has been added in the new patch? And how can I avoid it? Shall I wait a bit longer than the guarantee would expire? Thx!

It's the Little Entente or alternatively **** Hungary its an alliance formed between Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Yugoslavia to keep Hungary down personally I would advise waiting till Munich which will get rid of CZ and also dislove the Little Entente

If you play with historical AI focus, Czech will revoke the guarantee once you begin justifying war goal.

It was like this in 1.4.2. It's annoying because you can't get to them and then they wind up joining Allies so you can't peace out Yugoslavia.

Even more strange is that the Netherlands and Belgium are not guaranteed by France or Britain which makes no sense historically or game wise. Go figure!

Czechoslovakia take a focus called look to the west in which they remove the guarantee. if historical is on its like the 8th focus they take i think. time your fabricate claim for wwhen they remove it. you can time Greece at the same time and get a free Romania to boot.
