Gas on the cheap, Russia rewards Serbia's loyalty

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Sunday he had agreed with Russian President Vladimir Putin on a new three-year contract for gas supply from Russia.

The Serbian president said reconciliation was reached during a telephone conversation sunday, but did not give more details about the deal, which is expected to be closed over the coming days with Russian state-owned Gazprom.

On 31 May, a decade-long gas agreement expires, while the new agreement, the Serbian president said, will provide Serbia with three-year supply at better prices than all other European countries.

Since 2008, the gas and oil sectors in Serbia have been in the hands of Russian companies.

The Serbian president told the media in Serbia that the Russian president has notified him of the situation around Ukraine, stressing that there is an agreement offered to Kiev and Western countries, but without giving any details.

Serbia, which aims to join the European Union, has been put under the table by Western countries to harmonise its foreign policy with the bloc and impose sanctions on Russia, due to its aggression in Ukraine.

Earlier this month, EU Foreign Policy Chief Josep Borell said that "keeping close ties with Vladimir Putin's regime is no longer in line with building a common future with the European Union".

Serbia refuses to impose sanctions on the old ally, which supports Belgrade in its approach from Kosovo's independence.

The Serbian president, who on June 7th hosts Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Belgrade, restressed on Sunday that Serbia will continue to defy sanctions on Russia, although as he said, expects the addition of the following days when Belgrade is expected to visit European officials, including German Chancellor Olaf Scholtz.
