A consultant affiliated with the ruling party in Visegrad, a city in Bosnia and Herzegovina, has promoted the ultra-nationalist Russian organization known as Rusov. This organization has been linked to members who participated in the Russian aggression against Ukraine. According to previous reports by Radio Free Europe (RFE), the International Movement Union and Russian-Slavic Revival (Rusov) maintains associations with several far-right groups originating from Serbia.
Furthermore, the leader of this specific movement, Andrei Rodionov, has reportedly visited the Visegrad region on multiple occasions. Evidence of these connections was documented via the group’s Telegram channel in April. The post featured a photograph showing Velibor Zeković, identified as a consultant for the Socialist Party of the Republic of Serbia within the Visegrad Parliament.
Zeković was pictured in the Zagllavak area, near Visegrad, displaying the Rusov flag. Accompanying him in the photograph was Željko Gjurović. The promotion of this particular Russian political group highlights ongoing transnational connections between nationalist elements in the Balkans and organizations with ties to Russia.
The documented presence of the consultant alongside the flag suggests continued engagement between local political figures and the stated goals of the Rusov movement. These reports indicate that the activities involve coordination between various political actors across different national borders, centered around the ideological framework of the group.
