The Minister of Mines and Energy, Zorana Mihajlović, said that it seems that there is a great effort by individuals to hide the business of the Transportgas company from the ministry, since the director of that company, Stevan Dukić, did not appear at the meeting in the Government of Serbia, to which he was publicly invited.
“I regret that the director of Transportgas did not appear at any meeting to which he was invited because it was an opportunity to clarify many things about the business of this company. Among other things, Transportgas, as a Srbijagas subsidiary, did not coordinate its business with the Public Companies Law, nor did it elect a director in accordance with that law, “Mihajlović said, the ministry announced.
As he stated, “it also means that the director of the company, Stevan Dukić, signs the minutes of Transportgas, although he was not chosen according to legal procedure, which raises the question of the validity of all the minutes that he signed as director” .
Perhaps Dukić thinks that by not attending the meeting he will be able to maintain his position for some time and avoid answering questions about the business of this company. But, despite the lack of respect from the Government and the Ministry that it showed, no director of the company is above the state that founded it, not even the director of Transportgas, “said Mihajlović.
The Minister pointed out that Serbia does not need directors who work only in their own interest, because they perform work of state importance and must be accountable for their work to the Government and citizens of Serbia, and not to the people who control them.
“It is disastrous to have a director at the head of a state company who is blackmailed or bought for director positions and appearances for thousands of euros, as is the case of the director of Transportgas, who protects the private interests of the director of Srbijagas, Dusan Bajatovic, instead of working for the state and citizens. ” “Mihajlović said.
He also pointed out that the directors of state-owned companies are exclusively responsible for their work to the Serbian government, and not to those to whom they believe they owe their appointment.
“This is exactly the case here, that the director of Transportgas has a prohibition from the director of Srbijagas to appear in meetings in the Government. But then citizens should know that there is a price for their silence and the lack of response to calls from the Government and the corresponding ministry, “said Mihajlovic. .
He specified that, in addition to the salary he receives as director of the state-owned company Transportgas and “which is several times higher than the average salary received by hundreds of thousands of workers employed in Serbia, he also receives another salary of more than 5,000 euros in another subsidiary “. Srbijagas “.
As he added, it is the Gastrans company, which is the investor for the construction of the section of the “Turkish Stream” gas pipeline through Serbia, and which was founded by the South Stream Serbia company, founded in Switzerland, in which the 51 percent of the capital is owned by the Russian Gazprom. Srbijagas.
He mentioned that Gastrans was established to carry out a project of strategic importance, a joint project of Serbia and Russia, the construction of a section of the “Turkish Current” through Serbia, from the border with Bulgaria to the border with Hungary.
“Unfortunately, on that project, certain jobs are lagging in relation to dynamics, and that is exactly in those jobs that are Srbijagas’s obligation,” said Mihajlović.
