    According to the Russian Satellite News Agency, Serbian President Vucic said on June 14 local time that due to the impact of the new round of EU sanctions against Russia, Serbia will not be able to import oil
    from Russia from November 1 this year.
    Rosneft was first transported to Croatia by tanker, disembarked through a Croatian port, and then shipped to Serbia
    via the Adriatic Oil Pipeline (JANAF).

    Russian Satellite Agency: Affected by EU (Russia) sanctions, Serbia cannot import oil from Russia from November 1

    According to the report, Vucic told reporters on the 14th: "From November 1, according to the current sanctions, we will not be able to import Russian oil, who knows what sanctions will be taken before then
    .
    " ”

    Vučić also said that oil is a necessity for Serbia's energy supply, "only in Obrenovac (in central Serbia) (there is a Nikolai nearby?) The Tesla power plant, and the largest thermal power plant in Serbia, consumes 350 tons of fuel a day because the coal is not dry enough and of average
    quality.
    So fuel
    is needed.
    And the Serbian Petroleum Industry Company (NIS) does not have enough fuel oil, we need to import 20,000 tons (fuel oil), considering that all winter, we need to import 120,000 tons (fuel oil).

    The European Commission announced the sixth round of sanctions against Russia on the 3rd of this month, including some oil embargoes and sanctions against Russian oil tankers, banks and media
    .
    The European Commission issued a communiqué on the same day saying that the sanctions will take effect immediately and will gradually reduce Russian oil imports
    .
    At present, the European Union is drafting a seventh round of sanctions against Russia, and some EU member states have expressed hope that the new sanctions will include an embargo
    on Russian gas.
    In this regard, Hungarian Prime Minister Orbán issued a warning on the 10th that if the EU embargoes Russian gas, the European economy may collapse
    .

    Regarding the EU's continued increase in sanctions against Russia, according to Reuters, German Chancellor Scholz visited Serbia on the 10th of this month and pressured Serbia to impose sanctions on Russia, Serbian President Vucic seemed to reject this, and said that he did not believe that sanctions were "effective"
