At the proposal of the Ministry of Finance, the Serbian government has agreed to import 15,000 tonnes of sunflower cooking oil without customs duties, and thus begin to apply radical antimonopoly measures to bring order into the cooking oil market and prevent further hikes in the price of this product, Serbian Minister of Finance Mladjan Dinkic said today. Because of the upcoming talks with the World Trade Organisation and EU, the customs duties will not be permanently abolished, rather they will only be on hold for a period of two months. “Once we see what the effects of such measures are, we will have some grounds to help us decide which actions we should take to protect consumers”, Dinkic said at the press conference.
