This way, we could help BiH, and partially Serbia,&#8221; \u0160u\u0161njar added, as reported by Croatian Radio and Television (HRT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He dismissed assessments that the development regarding NIS and the sanctions jeopardizes Croatia&#8217;s position in negotiations with <strong>MOL<\/strong> regarding the supply of sufficient quantities of oil to Hungary and Slovakia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Minister said that Croatia is ready to deliver sufficient quantities of oil to Hungary, Slovakia, and Serbia when circumstances and geopolitical conditions allow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sanctions will cost 18 million euros<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The US sanctions against the Oil Industry of Serbia (NIS) will cost Croatia <strong>18 million euros<\/strong> if they remain in force until the end of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This was stated on the Croatian Radio program <em>&#8220;I mre\u017ei Prvog&#8221;<\/em> by <strong>Stjepan Adani\u0107<\/strong>, Chairman of the Management Board of Jadranski naftovod (JANAF), regarding the US sanctions against the Oil Industry of Serbia coming into effect today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NIS is, he says, an <strong>extremely important JANAF partner<\/strong> because business with the Serbian company accounts for more than 30 percent of its revenues. Therefore, the US sanctions against NIS represent a loss for Croatia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;That is our loss of <strong>18 million euros<\/strong> by the end of the year, if the sanctions remain. However, we hope that NIS, the Americans, and the Russians will find some solution before the end of the year,&#8221; Adani\u0107 said, as reported by HRT, which prominently published NIS&#8217;s statement about the US sanctions coming into force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbian-doctors-performed-a-revolutionary-procedure-historical-undertaking-in-the-treatment-of-a-serious-illness-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIAN DOCTORS PERFORMED A REVOLUTIONARY PROCEDURE: Historical undertaking in the treatment of a serious illness!
