The dispute between the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia in 1948, known as the Informbiro period, arose primarily from Yugoslavia's leader Josip Broz Tito's refusal to conform to Stalin's strict control over Eastern Bloc countries. Tito pursued an independent path of socialism, which clashed with the Soviet Union's desire for a unified communist bloc. This led to Yugoslavia being expelled from the Cominform, a Soviet-led organization of communist parties, and resulted in economic and political isolation from Moscow. The split marked a significant shift in Cold War dynamics, as Yugoslavia became a non-aligned socialist state.

At the close of World War 2, Yugoslavia had managed to liberate itself from the Axis powers with only limited direct support from the Soviets. This meant that at the end of the war the Soviet Union did not have a military foothold in Yugoslavia and the Yugoslav Communists were not 'indebted' to the Soviet Union for helping to liberate their country.
