I can't find any younger pics of him since those are better for classifying. I only found these:

I think his jawline is longer than the standard East-baltids. Although, he does show baltid in his facial structure.

I found this pic, in the suit, from 1995 so he would be 51 there.

Is he a Serb? He is one of the most North/East Slavic looking Serbs I've seen.
