Djedovic Handanovic: No need to worry about natural gas, Balkan Stream is Serbia's supply route

BELGRADE - Serbians need not be concerned over the halt of Russian gas transit via Ukraine because Serbia gets its gas supplies through the Balkan Stream pipeline, Minister of Mining and Energy Dubravka Djedovic Handanovic told Tanjug on Thursday.

Having sufficiently large reserves of fuels and keeping their prices stable in spite of the complex geopolitical situation is the most important thing for Serbia, Djedovic Handanovic said.

"The European market might feel certain consequences, but we will be striving to keep them from spilling over to Serbia," the minister noted.
