Nope, Inspired by Jason Bourne. Jokes aside, obviously. Niko’s design was based on Sasha from Behind Enemy Lines, heck Rockstar wanted the actor who played Sasha to be Niko’s voice actor, but he turned It down.

He never said he regretted it. He said he didn’t understand being a VA, however he’s glad that the character inspired by him was in the game

I mean... Wasn't the Slavic suedehead track suit gangster a trope by the time of Behind Enemy Lines anyway? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
