, NewsKuwait is interested in taking over oil refinery in Bosanski Brod, Ambassador Mehmed Halilovic told Dnevni Avaz.
Bosnian Ambassador to Kuwait did not want to disclose more details about this issue.
Officials in Kuwait also declined to comment on those speculations.

There are speculations that Russians are planning to withdraw from Republika Srpska refinery.
Avaz unofficially learned that there is a political will in both Bosnian entities to open negotiations with Kuwait.
Ambassador Halilovic recalled that Kuwait had been interested in buying OMV gas stations in Bosnia which means that speculations about its interest in entering BiH energy market through Bosanski Brod refinery are not groundless.
