If Vučić gets the opportunity to attack Bosnia, let's permanently resolve the issue of the country's survival using the Nagorno-Karabakh model!

“Vučić, with significant support from within Serbian politics, elite, and society, is not satisfied with the results of the wars Serbia waged in the 1990s in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro. Last week, he openly told members of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts that Serbia must wait for the existing global relations to change in order to finally achieve its national and state goals. And this can only be done through new wars,” warned Professor Dubravka Stojanović.

Such a warning should set off all alarms in Bosnia and Herzegovina and sound all sirens. Because we know that Vučić has been arming himself since he took the helm of Serbia. And every time he acquires new weaponry, Vučić has a clear message “we are defending Serbia,” and he, as well as the whole world, knows that Serbia has not been attacked by anyone for almost 80 years.

Therefore, the weapons he presents as defensive are being prepared for an offensive for which, as Professor Stojanović said, he is waiting for the right “geopolitical moment”.

Haven't we already heard a similar statement, repeated several times, from Milorad Dodik, the president of the Bosnian Serb entity RS, who does not hide his secessionist aspirations at all? We have, and it is clear to us that Serbian politics and the intellectual elite are waiting for an opportunity to finish Slobodan Milošević's work.

Montenegro has fallen, and messages are coming from Podgorica from Chetnik forces saying “we will fight for Serbia and RS”. This should dawn on the minds of Bosnian patriots, making it clear to them that they must be ready for action at any moment. Especially when we observe the tremors on the international stage.

Because that is the opportunity that the implementers of the SANU memorandum and Milošević's politics are waiting for. Therefore, instead of tearing their throats and clapping their hands cheering for warring sides around the world, those who call themselves pro-Bosnian must understand that any ripple on the geopolitical board can be a trigger for the hegemonists from Belgrade and the secessionists from Banja Luka. Moreover, there is no doubt that those from Zagreb would also try to seize their chance.

If we add to all this and correctly understand the message of the recent visit of NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg that BiH will not join the Alliance without internal consensus, then it is completely obvious that the defense of Bosnia and Herzegovina as a whole and sovereign state depends on the same forces that defended it in the nineties, with the same friends.

There is no reason to doubt the truth of what Professor Stojanović said, especially knowing that peace in its full and complete scope has never reigned here, just as the criminal hegemonic policies of Belgrade and Zagreb have not subsided.

Only those who think shallowly and scratch the surface can believe in any form of cooperation between BiH and neighboring countries until the issues that remain a legacy of double aggression, double joint criminal enterprise, and genocide in this country, along with ethnic cleansing and a whole series of other crimes, are resolved.

The war has never factually ended, only the armies and artillery have been put on reserve until the final reckoning. Therefore, any talk of compromise, cooperation, and joint projects loses its meaning, and any call for dialogue with the country's enemies is an act of betrayal.

There is no dialogue with those who walk around Bosnia and Herzegovina like foxes and see it as prey to be torn apart.

Vučić is one of them, the most dangerous due to the fact that he grew up and was educated during Milošević's time, learned from Šešelj, and has SANU at his full disposal. With not insignificant international assistance, it is not impossible for Bosnia and Herzegovina to be under sanctions again because it is defending itself from disappearance and from enemies in its surroundings.

It is also worth recalling the article I published a few months ago in which a British professor, without any provocation, stated the need for the division of BiH by 2030 at the latest. Vučić himself has mentioned the same date several times.

And without a doubt, the patriotic forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina must be vigilant and not allow Zvornik, Bijeljina, or Prijedor to happen again, but to react fully prepared to any of Vučić's attempts.

In fact, to be clear, in case of any potential threat, the Nagorno-Karabakh method should be used to end the story of the defense and survival of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the long run. Let Vučić attack, as long as we are ready.
