The facts of Michael Flynn's most peculiar foray in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which appear to have significant political and legal ramifications both in Sarajevo and Washington.
1. Michael Flynn is a registered lobbyist for Kremlin-backed Bosnian Serb secessionist regime of Milorad Dodik, who has been removed from office by the Bosnian courts but continues to govern the Republika Srpska (RS) entity in all but name.
2. Flynn was instrumental in securing sanctions relief for Dodik from the Trump administration in October 2025, despite Dodik's continued direct threats to the US-brokered Dayton Peace Agreement.
3. AAFS Infrastructure and Energy LLC is a (very) recently incorporated firm based out of Wyoming, whose only known principals are Joseph Flynn, Michael Flynn's brother, and Jesse Binnall, Mike Flynn's lawyer.
4. AAFS has no known employees, nor any known history of any infrastructure or any other project whatsoever, yet it has been championed by the US Embassy in Sarajevo as the lead candidate in the construction of the Southern Interconnection gas pipeline in Bosnia and Herzegovina, whose value is estimated at some $200 million.
5. Today, the government of the Federation entity published the draft of a lex specialis which ejects the country's own state-owned gas utility from the Southern Interconnector project in favor of AAFS.
Why are authorities in Sarajevo granting such significant concessions to a firm which has no relevant industry experience, and whose principals are directly linked to the the No. 1 threat to that country's security, sovereignty, and territorial integrity?
And by what process did the US Embassy come to promote the involvement of AAFS in the Southern Interconnector project? Were other US or BiH firms allowed to bid for the project? If so, where is the evidence of that bidding process? And if not, why not -- and was that decision legal under US law?
