Portfolio
Croatia's Deputy Prime Minister Radimir Cacic has also spoken about the proposed buyback of Hungarian energy group MOL's 49% stake in Croatian oil and gas company INA. Croatia announced plans to do so in an impromptu press conference on 24th December.
Cacic has discussed the issue in an interview on television, VS.hu reported. According to Croatia's Deputy Prime Minister,

talks are already underway on how Croatia could be compensated for lost revenue from Syrian oil fields, and how Croatia could re-establish a presence as an oil industry player in Syria.

He reminded that the State of Croatia had had USD 800 million in revenue from oil fields in Syria up until 2001 via INA's exploration and development activities activity there.

Cacic argued that income could be the source of funds needed to buy MOL out of INA.
