Serbia government greenlights disputed lithium mining project

By July 16, 2024No Comments1 min read

Belgrade, Serbia (AFP) – The Serbian government on Tuesday gave permission to restart operations at a disputed Rio Tinto lithium mining project, days after a court ruling overturned measures to halt the project.

“The government… takes measures to restore the legal order to the state that existed before the adoption of the regulation that was declared unconstitutional,” read a statement published by the Serbian government.
