ICG's James Lyon says that although the situation in Bosnia is serious, it will not lead to a new war. The International Crisis Group (ICG) analyst told Sarajevo daily Dnevni Avaz that the international community "has invested too much in Bosnia to let all that effort go to waste." "There won't be another Bosnian war" According to him, the conflict between the Republic of Srpska premier Milorad Dodik and High Representative Miroslav Lajcak will end with "Dodik getting the short end of the stick." Lyon told the newspaper Lajcak had the backing of the West, while Russia does not favor worsening of the situation in Bosnia, "despite support from Moscow that Dodik occasionally enjoys." He added that "there are those in the RS who wish for its secession from Bosnia-Herzegovina in the long term." "But, the international community will increase its efforts and pressure on those who do not wish to see agreement and compromise. This means that not only Serb politicians will feel the consequences," Lyon said.
