Abstract
This report identifies external geopolitical actors, the current state of their involvement, and their respective strategies at different levels in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It analyses the mechanisms and channels through which these actors exert influence, ranging from economic investments to media disinformation. The report also discusses the outcomes of this influence, including the reinforcement of authoritarian tendencies and the weakening of democratic institutions.
