Commissioner for Neighbourhood and Enlargement Oliv\u00e9r\u00a0V\u00e1rhelyi\u00a0<\/strong>will be in Serbia today to announce a\u00a0\u20ac2.2 billion financial package<\/strong>\u00a0that will enable a substantial modernisation of the railway tracks of Corridor X.<\/p>\n

\n

The Corridor X railway project is one of the\u00a0Economic and Investment Plan flagship investments<\/a>, connecting the region with the EU via Croatia, through Belgrade and further to Ni\u0161, Skopje and Greece. The project will contribute to the modernisation of the railways in Serbia and improve Serbia’s connectivity with other European rail networks. It is part of the EU’s \u20ac30 billion Economic and Investment Plan for the Western Balkans which aims to mobilise investments in the areas of transport, energy, green and digital transition, to create sustainable growth and jobs.<\/p>\n

\n

An\u00a0EU grant of up to \u20ac600 million<\/strong>\u00a0is foreseen for this project. Out of this, \u20ac265 million has been already approved so far for the Belgrade \u2013 Ni\u0161 fast railway that will allow to travel between the two cities with the speed of up to 200 km \/ h and in around 100 minutes. The rest of the package consists of a\u00a0\u20ac1.1 billion loan from the EIB<\/strong>\u00a0and a\u00a0\u20ac550 million EBRD loan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

During his visit,\u00a0<\/strong>Commissioner\u00a0V\u00e1rhelyi\u00a0<\/strong>will meet President Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107, Prime Minister Ana Brnabi\u0107, Minister of European Integration Tanja Mi\u0161\u010devi\u0107, and Minister of Interior Bratislav Ga\u0161i\u0107 to discuss accession negotiations priorities, in particular in the rule of law area, and cooperation in the areas of sustainable connectivity, energy, and migration.<\/p>\n

\n

The Commissioner will also discuss the EU support to Serbia to face the current energy crisis following the recent signature of the \u20ac165 million budget support to help mitigate the energy prices amongst vulnerable households and SMEs under the \u20ac1 billion\u00a0Energy Support Package<\/a> for the Western Balkans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
