“We regularly hold such discussions, and this is very important, especially against the background of the current situation in the global energy market.

And it, as you know, remains extremely unstable.

First of all, I mean the situation on the European natural gas market, ”Putin said at the meeting.

Earlier, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said that the situation on the European energy market is dire due to the rise in prices for electricity and gas.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said that the situation on the European energy market, including the gas market, is unlikely to improve in the short term.
