“But don’t worry - Serbia still has Hungarian and Rumanian minorities it can now turn on. Maybe an independent republic of Voivodina will be next.”

I doubt it. Serbs make up a majority of Vojvodina’s pouplation, even if a narrow one.

Absolutely correct.

But if they turn on their last sizable remaining minority - the Hungarians - they could lose yet more territory.

One would assume that they would know better than to do this - Hungary is a much stronger nation than Albania, is a full member of NATO, has a modern military with officers who are combat veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan and who have good knowledge of Serbian geography, etc. - but the Serb faction represented by the Radical Party have never been the type to think before acting.
