Tim Judah on construction of Nish – Prishtina highway RTKLive 2 minutes _____ 09:56 / 23.09.2020 Tim Judah, a British reporter and political analyst for The Economist, took to Twitter on Tuesday to write that “US officials have talked a lot recently about the merits of the Washington papers that were signed including the point about the "peace highway", the road from Nis to Pristina. Today there is talk of $1bn to help finance it. But this is all a bit of mystery....#serbia #kosovo”. Judah also wrote: “I asked @EBRDabout this and, as far as I can see, it has all already been taken care of by the EU, so it is unclear what the Americans are talking of financing here. This is what the EBRD say about this road and its financing: 1: Nis-Plocnik – EIB/EBRD co-financing with EU grant – tenders to be launched early October, 2: Plocnik – Merdare – under preparation with EU grants for financing as above, 3: Pristina – Merdare – ditto, 4: Pristina – Tirana – ready – competed by Bechtel in 2010. So, could this be yet another case of the EU doing something good and paying for it and no one knowing? The EU pays for a lot of things in Serbia for example but many Serbs believe that the Russians or Chinese paid for them. Will we soon add the Americans in with them?” -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SERBIAN NEWS NETWORK" group.
