He is probably of Pontic Greek origin from Russia or Ukraine, he could be of mixed origin but I doubt it, since he has never mention it. His name is Vladimiros, which indicates his connection to Slavic countries, but it doesn't necessary mean that he has Slavic ancestry because a lot of Pontic Greeks took Russian names there.

Alpine-Dinaric-North Pontid.

He looks vaguely "Eastern European" although not largely Slavic.

Ukrainian, but he'd be a darker one.

Btw, I have met Pontic Greeks with Slavic first names. There's an old Greek couple in my town who are Pontic and their first names are Ivan and Tatiana.

Passes better from North Caucasus to Bulgaria.
