Zakharova: Gas negotiations with Serbia will begin after the formation of the government. The issue of extending the gas contract between Russia and Serbia (the current agreement ends on December 31) will be discussed only after the formation of a new Serbian government and receiving official requests from Belgrade. This is what the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said. Referring to the statements of the representative of the winning "Student List" Dejan Radivojevic about the need for a new long-term agreement, Zakharova emphasized that Moscow is closely monitoring the situation in friendly Serbia and wishes that it will successfully go through the transition period. The diplomat added that the non-governmental contacts were not interrupted. Press Service of the Russian Foreign Ministry/TASS Balkanist.
