He could pass as an atypical Macedonian.

I don't think so.

I've never seen a Macedonian looking like him.

Pontid-Baltid maybe slight Dinarid influence

I think he could pass for a German person or a Swedish person. Is it just me or do Swedish people and Ukrainian people really look alike?

Irrelevant. He doesn't look Macedonian in the slightest.

I think I know that better than you. He CAN pass, that doesn't mean he looks typical though.

I think he could easily pass in Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia, and even Sweden! Do you guys agree?

But you "think" so even you're not entirely convinced.

Who said he looks typical anyway? His phenotype isn't present in Macedonia and he would stick out like a sore thumb in Skopje. Accept this and move on.

He has a better chance of passing in some parts of Serbia although he would be less than typical.

We have Slavic looking people among us. ;)

At first sight I would not have thought he was from Ukraine. Although he definitely does look Ukrainian after knowing thats where he is actually from that would not have been my first guess.

To be honest he gives me a Chechen or Ingush vibe. Looks like the more light haired ones.

He is from the most eastern province of Ukraine - Luhansk Oblast. Do you think he has some Cossack/Caucasus/West Asian admixture?

Probably, it was his headshape what gave me this North Caucasian vibe. Also on his lips, jaw and hairstyle. He looks simply North Caucasian with some possible Slavic input.

especially on this two photos he has such a North Caucasian look on him.

He looks too robust for a typical Slav.

He has the robustness of this North Caucasians.

Have you been listen to Forrest Kingsley/Nobert too much or you are actually Forrest Kingsley/Nobert?

Lol, there are plenty of typical Slavs who are way far robust than him.

Yes but they are mostly Slavs from Caucasus, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan or South Slavs. But most East Slavs (Russians) are more Baltic-Alpine mixed. The face of this Ukrainian dude is more typical for the Caucasus. His place of origin is also close to Caucasus like it seems.

He can pass in Bulgaria.

North Pontid+Baltid. I think the only countries in the Balkans that he can pass in are Croatia and Slovenia.

He can pass in all south Slavic countries and i think no one would guess him as foreigner in Skopje -Macedonia .But theres something peculiar about this guy IMO .He fits the Macedonian Vardar Slav variety of looks .And phenotypicaly Slovenia and Croatia are no different then Serbia although more homogenous in ethnic sense (less minorities) in comparison to Serbia .Been to both countries .
These are from Skopje-Macedonia .Im not sure about their ethnicities though .

IMO he has a Pan-South Slavic look. I think he looks more South Slavic than East Slavic or West Slavic.

Pigeon has right.He is not typical but will pass.I have seen much more Slavic looking Macedonians than that guy.Balkans has all kind of types ranging from Nordids to hardcore Mediterranids, the average is somewhere inbetween scretching toward more the Med side.

These responses were great guys! I still think he looks Pred. South Slavic though. The classifications were perfect.
