Russia could not attack Bosnia in the same way as it has done with Ukraine as it doesn't share a land border with the country - surely Russia realises this. Russia's ally Serbia could in theory but Nato has a history of getting involved there. It certainly wouldn't be as wary in taking on Serbia as it is with Russia.
Russia could try an amphibious invasion but Bosnia has an absolutely tiny coastline, making it completely impractical. It would realistically have to go through either Croatia and/or Montenegro - and guess what, both of those countries are Nato members.

Maybe countries that have Russian troops currently occupying pieces of their land should think about forcing them out now that Russia is stretched thin and an international pariah...Moldova, Georgia...If Putin plays this wrong then even Assad could lose ground in Syria...I'd say Belarus but Lukashenko is such a puppet that isn't ever happening, I just hope if some false flag attack happens to push Belarus troops into Ukraine that the public drag his ass out of office. |
This is a possibility but runs the risk of escalating the conflict if different front open up. Whilst it unclear given Russia's problems fighting Ukraine if cope if strecthed further I doubt whether Georgia and Moldova are strong enough to with much of Russia's power on their own.
Despite it's proximity, its unclear whether Moldova is strong enough to best the Russian forces in Transnistria, even without Russian forces in Ukraine going over to help Transnistria. Georgia might be another matter as its suggested that Russia has the vast majority of its readily deployable combat forces committed to Ukraine. Maybe it could but it can't be sure. Is it a chance it is prepared to take?
