President of the Republic of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic met today with Director of the Energy Community Secretariat of the European Union Janez Kopac, with whom he discussed the implementation of reforms in the field of energy and the unbundling of activities in "Srbijagas".

President Vucic reminded that Serbia was chairing the Energy Community this year, and that the energy transition to clean energy sources remained the priority of Serbia, as well as the transformation of state energy companies.

The two interlocutors agreed that the unbundling of Srbijagas' activities was in line with the obligations under the Law on ratifying the Treaty establishing the Energy Community, and that, in that context, it was necessary to adjust strategies and take meaningful and effective steps.

Director of the Energy Community Secretariat of the European Union Janez Kopac expressed  expectation that Serbia would accept the initiative of the Energy Community Secretariat on imposing a carbon tax.
