The Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy says in a statement that Aroton stressed Romania’s interest in the construction of road Corridor 11 which would link Romania with Bari in Italy through Serbia and Montenegro.
Mrkonjic and Ariton, who is visiting Serbia as member of a Romanian delegation led by Romanian President Traian Basescu, said that the link between the Serbian and Romanian gas pipe-line systems occupies an important position in the regional gas pipe-line.
