That can be possible. Well, the similar incidents that I mentioned were happening in actual history. During the Iran crisis of 1946, Soviet refused Iran's request to withdraw the Soviet army in Iran while Britian withdraw the tropps. Also Stalin set up 2 puppet states, Republic of Mahabad and Azerbaijan People's Republic(Not Azerbaijan SSR) to control northern parts of Iran. Stalin finally withdraw troops when Soviet Union received oil-drilling rights in Iranian territory that were cancelled right after withdrawl in 1947.

So, my question is what if Soviet Union refused oil-drilling rights for withdrawl and pushed to set up satellite sate not only in northen area but also in whole Iranian territory? It can be led to war as you mentioned like in Korean peninsula or maybe Western countries couldn't intervene like Central Europe and Balkan peninsula.
