In a response to Euronews Serbia, the U.S. Embassy in Serbia highlighted that NIS is a national resource for Serbia, but Russian owners are using part of the profits to fund the aggression against Ukraine.
"NIS is a valuable national resource for Serbia, which was worth more than two billion dollars in 2008, when Gazprom bought more than half of its shares for a small portion of their market value. It is now the most profitable company in Serbia. Russian owners of NIS are using their share of the profits to finance the brutal aggression against Ukraine and threaten stability in the Balkans and across Europe, rather than investing in Serbia's future," stated the U.S. Embassy.
