Kirill Dmitriev, the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) and special presidential representative for investment and economic cooperation with foreign countries was right in his forecast of rising oil prices and its consequences, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said.
Kirill Dmitriev was right to predict that oil prices would hit $150 a barrel. And as you can see, the Chinese, Russians, and Americans understood where this was all leading. Europe is paying the most,” Vucic said.
Serbia ranks “second to last” in terms of the amount by which prices have increased since the start of the crisis, behind only Slovenia, and is making every effort and using state fuel reserves to help its citizens, he added.

Earlier, due to the energy crisis, the Serbian authorities decided to release 30,000 tons of diesel from reserves onto the market, reduced excise taxes by 25%, and extended ban on exports of oil and petroleum products until the end of June.
