The Russian ambassador to the UN disinforms: Bosnia and Herzegovina, on the verge of war because of the West

The warnings by Russian Ambassador to the UN Dmitry Polyanskiy about tonight’s “difficult meeting” and the possibility of an armed conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina represent yet another attempt by the Kremlin to destabilise the Balkan region.

What Polyanskiy said and reported by Sputnik Serbia:

Bosnia and Herzegovina is on the brink of armed conflict because of the actions of Western representatives, who are violating the Dayton Peace Agreement, and their desire to undermine the position of the Bosnian Serbs. At the meeting, Russia intends to make an embarrassing assessment for the West in this regard.

Analysis:

Polyanskiy’s warning about the “brink of war” in Bosnia and Herzegovina should be seen as part of a broader Russian propaganda campaign to disadvantage the West. His claims come at a time when Russia’s propaganda seeks to counter the role of the West and cast doubt on its support for peace and stability in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This meeting is expected to be an opportunity to condemn Russia’s attempts to interfere in the internal affairs of the countries of the region and to reaffirm the international community’s commitment to maintaining peace and stability in the Balkans./The Geopost/
