Political scientist from Bosnia-Herzegovina Jasmin Mujanović warned the public "about the ploy that are being prepared for that country by Zagreb, Belgrade, but also by some members of the EU and NATO".
Namely, Mujanović stated on his Twitter account that he found out that Croatia is lobbying for its army to be part of the EUFOR mission in BiH, which is unacceptable since it was a party to the war.
"I’ve just had confirmed from a Western source a troubling rumor: Croatia is lobbying hard to be admitted to the EUFORBIH mission in Bosnia. As a party to the Bosnian War, Zagreb routinely interfering in the country’s post-war governance, this is categorically unacceptable. Realistically, given that Croatia is the primary patron of the insurrectionist HDZ BiH bloc in Bosnia, who in turn are the closest partners of the secessionist SNSD, & both enjoy the benefaction of Slovenia, this would cast EUFORBIH as a malign force in the eyes of most Bosnians".
"I sincerely hope key decision makers in all the relevant Western capitals will have the sense to rebuff this ploy. The arrival of Croatian troops in Bosnia nearly 3 decades after Dayton would trigger a far more volatile reaction than the anti-segregation protests vs. OHR BiH".

He also referred to Milorad Dodik's plan to ensure, with the help of NATO and EU members Hungary and France, that if EUFOR in Bosnia-Herzegovina gets an extension of its mandate, their units will not be stationed in the RS entity, but only in the territory of Federation of BiH.
"Russian-backed Serb secessionists in Bosnia are relying on Hungarian & French backing to ensure that if EUFORBIH's mandate is extended, their troops will not be stationed on the territory of the RS entity. Shocking collaborationism by two NATO members. Dodik, through Hungary and France...lobby[ing] for the adoption of a decision according to which EUFOR units would be stationed only [in]...[FBiH]. One of the proponents of this idea was the French general Brice Houdet, otherwise the operational commander of...operation ALTHEA", Mujanović wrote, Sarajevo's Oslobođenje reports.

Croats in Bosnia were hard done by Tudjman when he allied with the Bosniaks.They felt betrayed. Serbs may have been the hardest hit, persecuted and expelled but they have a large entity where as the Croats and Bosniaks will have to sort out their lands. Bosniaks and Croats entity is still a frozen conflict, just like Kosovo. Zagreb is lobbying as a NATO member to protect it's interests, basically trying to correct Tudjman's mistakes.
