Spanish term or phrase: Vuelan las alianzas en la región de los Grandes Lagos.

This is the heading of a translation for an NGO. I know literally what each word means but "volar" perhaps has a different meaning here?

Looks like it means unstable alliances. By using volatile you may express some kind of violence outburst. There you can see the semantic link between volar and volatile, btw.
