This meeting, which was held in the Cabinet of Minister Dr. Sulejman Ugljanin in the building of the Government of the Republic of Serbia, was attended by the representatives of the Embassy of Slovakian Republic, as well as by Slovakian investors.

- We would finance the project for construction of regional gas pipeline from Aleksandrovac to Tutin, and the works would be carried out by Serbian companies with which we have already reached an agreement. If the agreement with Serbian Government was reached, Slovakian business consortium would open a sister company with the headquarters in Serbia, through which it would make that significant investment - said Lubor Tenecer, a representative of the Slovakian company that expressed interest in building regional gas pipeline in Serbia.
