Ireland–Yugoslavia relations (Serbo-Croatian: Odnosi Irska i Jugoslavije, Односи Ирска и Југославије; Slovene: Odnosi med Irska in Jugoslavijo; Macedonian: Односите Ирска-Југославија) were historical foreign relations between Ireland and now defunct Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. During the Cold War both Ireland and Yugoslavia refused to formally join either the NATO or Warsaw Pact military alliances with Ireland's claim of military neutrality and post-1948 Tito-Stalin split Yugoslavia focusing on diplomatic relations within the Non-Aligned Movement. During the Informbiro period Yugoslavia indirectly associated itself with NATO via the Balkan Pact (1953).
