- How has the EBRD assessed the corporate behaviour of the Kolubara and EPS companies towards communities affected by the extension of mining operations?
- How has the EBRD defined the project’s influence in the Kolubara basin?
- Can EBRD staff provide studies or numbers justifying Serbia’s need for further growth of coal production?
