Serbia's government said it has extended by one week through August 2 a 20% cut on fuel excise duties to protect the domestic market from rising oil prices stemming from the war in the Middle East.
Montenegro's government said it is temporarily cutting as of Tuesday the excise duties on motor fuel to cushion the expected rise in domestic retail prices prompted by the escalation of the Middle East war crisis, which is pushing up the global cost of crude oil.
A Romanian Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon shot down an unmanned aerial vehicle after it entered Romania's airspace without authorisation on Sunday morning, the defence ministry said, following two similar incidents on Friday and Saturday.
Although foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows to the countries in Central, East and Southeast Europe (CESEE) rose to a total of 91.5 billion euro ($104 billion) in 2025 from 75.8 billion euro in the prior year, most of the countries in the region posted a decline in FDI, both in absolute numbers and as a share of GDP, the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies (wiiw) said.
