A compromise has been reached! All outstanding issues with MOL Group have been successfully resolved

&ldquo;Among other things, Serbia and MOL have agreed that if Gazprom Neft reaches an agreement with MOL Group on the sale of its 56.15% stake in NIS, and if the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) approves the transaction, the Republic of Serbia will purchase an additional 5% stake in NIS. This would grant the state additional rights regarding the adoption or blocking of important decisions affecting our country,&rdquo; Djedović Handanović wrote on Instagram.Regarding the operation of the refinery in Pančevo, the Hungarian side committed to ensuring that the refinery continues operating as before, with at least the same average annual capacity as during the four years preceding the introduction of U.S. sanctions, when NIS was performing very successfully.&ldquo;Such operation of the refinery, which is necessary to meet Serbia&rsquo;s domestic demand for petroleum products, was one of the key issues for the Serbian side, and I am proud that we managed to reach a very important and beneficial agreement for the citizens of Serbia.Members of the Serbian side on the NIS Board of Directors will generally have greater powers than before, both in making decisions and in blocking any decisions that may be unfavorable to the Republic of Serbia.The Serbian state has not had such influence since 2008, when NIS was privatized.We continue to work diligently on finding a long-term solution for NIS following the introduction of U.S. sanctions, for which neither the Republic of Serbia, its Government, nor its citizens bear any responsibility,&rdquo; Djedović Handanović stated.
