Vucic also said that if no such agreement is concluded, Serbia will immediately diversify its sources of supply.

"I'm still waiting for news from Moscow, to tell you the truth. We thought we would get that information before 1 pm, but we didn't. In any case, it will be a short-term contract. We'll see. If it happens - good. If not, we will immediately start diversifying the source of gas supply," Vucic said at a panel of the GLOBSEC-organized forum BELTALKS: Belgrade Economic Talks.

When asked if Serbia already has some concrete projects for diversification in mind, Vucic replied:

"Do I have any ideas? Yes, I have. I always have some reservations."
