Minister of Energy and Mining of Republika Srpska, Petar Djokic, highlighted today in Banja Luka that Republika Srpska has a sincere and proven friend and partner in Russia, with whom cooperation and strengthening relations will continue.
In a discussion with the delegation from the Nizhny Novgorod region, Djokic expressed satisfaction that Republika Srpska is recognized as a reliable partner in the Nizhny Novgorod region in the realization of joint projects, which was the primary purpose of establishing cooperation in 2018 when the Cooperation Agreement was signed, as announced by the Ministry of Energy and Mining of Republika Srpska.
