Paket uključuje prodaju 51 posto državne naftne i plinske tvrtke NIS ruskom Gazprom Neftu, kao i ostala dva ugovora u kojima je izloženo sudjelovanje Srbije u projektu izgradnje plinovoda Južni smjer i modernizacija skladišta za plin Banatski Dvor.

Predsjednik Srbije Boris Tadić i njegov ruski kolega Dmitry Medvedev potpisat će sporazum uskoro, vjerojatno u srijedu.
The energy deal has strained relations in Serbia's ruling coalition after G17 Plus took a stand against it, arguing the sale price of NIS is too low and there are no guarantees Russia will implement the other two projects.
Energetski sporazum doveo je do zatezanja odnosa u srbijanskoj vladajućoj koaliciji nakon što mu se stranka G17 Plus usprotivila, tvrdeći kako je cijena NIS- a preniska, te ne postoje jamstva da će Rusija provesti ostala dva projekta.

A court in Skopje ordered Frckovski to pay the damages for making allegations last year of Gruevski's involvement in a corruption case in 1999 when he was finance minister.
Sud u Skoplju naložio je Frčkovskom platiti odštetu jer je prošle godine iznio tvrdnje vezane za sudjelovanje Gruevskog u slučaju korupcije iz 1999. godine kada je bio ministar financija.
In 2007, Frckovski, now a university professor, published a comment in the daily Dnevnik on Gruevski's alleged involvement in the sale of the state oil refinery OKTA to Greece's Hellenic Petroleum.
Frčkovski, sada sveučilišni profesor, objavio je 2007. godine komentar u dnevnom listu Dnevnik o navodnom sudjelovanju Gruevskog u prodaji državne rafinerije nafte OKTA grčkom Hellenic Petroleumu.
Frckovski describes Monday's verdict as an "attack on free speech", saying he was just trying to "shed light on the role of various politicians in the sale of the refinery".
Frčkovski opisuje presudu od ponedjeljka kao "napad na slobodu govora" i kaže kako je samo pokušavao "rasvijetliti ulogu različitih političara u prodaji rafinerije".
