A Serbian delegation led by Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandar Vulin and including the Chief of Operations of the Security Intelligence Agency (BIA), Marko Parezanovic, is visiting China.
Vulin met with Chen Yisin, Minister of State Security and Head of the People’s Republic of China’s Intelligence and Counter-Intelligence Service, and Parezanovic also attended the meeting.
Yisin stressed that the election of Aleksandar Vulin as Deputy Prime Minister of Serbia shows that Serbia “has a backbone and is pursuing an independent policy”.
The meeting agreed to continue cooperation between Serbia and China in the field of security “with a view to protecting both countries”, as well as to exchange experiences in counter-intelligence work and the fight against colour revolutions, Vulin’s office said. The excellent, continuous and fruitful cooperation between the BIA and China’s Ministry of State Security was also highlighted.
The Chinese Ministry of State Security leadership expressed its special gratitude to the Serbian leadership for “the efforts it is making to develop and strengthen Serbian-Chinese relations, as well as for pursuing an independent and libertarian policy in the face of great pressure from some international power centers that still do not understand that the world has become polycentric” and multipolar,” the statement added.
This was preceded by a meeting with Chen Wenqing, Secretary of the Central Political and Legal Affairs Commission of the Communist Party Central Committee, who is also China’s top security official.
The meeting was also devoted to deepening cooperation between the two countries in the field of security, in particular with regard to exchanging experiences in the fight against the colour revolutions.
Parezanovic’s presence is indicative
The presence of Marko Parezanovic, a more conservative figure in BiH and a trusted confidant of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic in BiH, at this meeting is very indicative.
Parezanovic became known to the wider public in 2018 when he made a public appearance at a conference of the right-wing organization National Vanguard, which was attended by almost the entire Serbian state top, including President Vucic. that the biggest threat to Serbia’s security is the opposition, trade unions, NGOs and the media.
One of the surveys by the Crime and Corruption Research Network (CRRN) mentions Parezanovic, known as Markus in Sky correspondence.
In the books he has written, he has expressed views that have mostly coincided with Russian propaganda, and was once accused by former Montenegrin President Milo Đukanović of being the main Russian agent in Serbia.
At the BIA, he was involved in disrupting, organizing and repressing protests. He has also worked on business in the region, notably in Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina, where he maintained links with local politicians.
Parezanovic is believed to have been the main man organizing processions in Montenegro and coordinating the enthronement of Joanik Mićović in Cetinje.
He is linked to Sergei Besed, the former head of the Fifth Department of the Russian FSB intelligence service.
At the moment, in addition to the Serbian delegation, Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council and Chairman of the United Russia party, is in China.
