I feel horribly insulted! I think I need a coop-a-tea.

this is yankee nonsense, there still isnt any reason to believe there will be any escalation of conflict, and if there is it would prevent them from shooting in only russia and ukraine, the entirety of eastern europe wont become some dangerous warzone
Armenia, Belarus, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Georgia, Greece, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania are all countries they can freely shoot in, the delay doesnt have anything to do with the political situation "there" unless they were planning to shoot in russia or ukraine specifically
That's not how it works. If war breaks out it will have several knock-on effects. Many air-routes over the continent will be closed and Eastern Europe will likely have a massive refugee crisis on it's hands in addition the disruption of fuel and food supplies. There is also the possibility of the war spilling over into neighbouring countries.
Production companies are notoriously skittish, understandable considering that they are probably investing north of $100 million into this. If there is any threat to the stability of the country and it's infrastructure or any potential danger to the crew and cast then they will go and film it elsewhere.
Granted, a few of the countries you mentioned will probably be fine, but as we don't know where they plan to shoot, any further speculation is pointless.
QuoteBelarus, Moldova
Russian troops will be invading from Belarus and Moldova if Putin decides to go to war. It's gonna be a warzone.
