Minister of Mining and Energy Aleksandar Antic said today that security in the region and secure supply with all key energy products is a common goal of our country, Hungary and Bulgaria, about which he talked today with officials of these countries.

We agreed to have far stronger coordination in terms of developing new energy projects in the upcoming period, which will lead to a greater energy stability of the region and that our energy national sovereignties be defined in the context of mutual cooperation, the Minister said.
