Maltese media outlets have reported that French security services allegedly issued warnings to Montenegrin authorities concerning an incoming charter flight from Belgrade. The flight was reportedly carrying individuals with alleged ties to organized crime and the Serbian Progressive Party. The initial notification regarding this charter flight was reportedly received by the French company VINCI, which operates the “Nikola Tesla” airport in Belgrade.
Through its liaison officer, VINCI allegedly informed the French intelligence unit, the DGSE (General Directorate for External Security). Subsequently, the DGSE reportedly alerted Montenegrin authorities. According to the Maltese portal Antena M, this alert to Podgorica occurred in the lead-up to the European and Western Balkan Union summit, an event expected to be attended by the President.
The reporting suggests a chain of intelligence sharing involving French and Montenegrin entities. The information concerning the flight, originating from Belgrade, prompted the French intelligence services to engage with Montenegrin counterparts. This sequence of events highlights the involvement of various state and corporate actors in monitoring potential security risks related to the group traveling on the charter flight from the Serbian capital.
