Israeli Ambassador Jahel Villan said that Serbia and Israel have strengthened cooperation in the field of energy in the past two to three years. “We will continue to work on strengthening the good relations between our two countries,” Villan said.

Serbian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Energy and Mining Zorana Mihajlovic said that energy diversification is a very important topic for Serbia, which will be able to get energy from other suppliers through interconnections.

“Energy stability is also political stability,” Mihajlovic said, adding that Serbia, as the central country of the Western Balkans, can ensure its energy independence.
