No gas, electricity price hikes

Energy Minister Petar Skundric say there will be no increase of price of gas until the end of the heating season. He also denied that an electricity price hike was planned before April, pointing out that there is an agreement that any possible alteration in the prices of energy products must not cause an impact of inflation. No gas, electricity price hikes "Citizens of Serbia can be assured that gas prices will not go up until the end of winter, and hopefully even longer", Skundric told Belgrade daily Vecernje Novosti on Monday. He stressed that, due to the dollar exchange rate, there have been objective economic reasons for price increase, "but that it was estimated that the economy and citizens could hardly endure any raise in these costs".
