We are slowly approaching the end of this" Corona " year, but also a year of great economic crisis, fear and uncertainty. Dark, and slightly pessimistic, and finally, albeit on a slightly smaller scale, optimistic predictions for the next year, almost each with several scenarios and variants for realization, which are usually expressed in percentages. Here, however, we will not deal with various possible scenarios and percentages of their realization, but we will base the prediction on the main current and expected World Economic and political flows and vectors, and of course their impact on our overall perspective in the next year.

What happened some time ago is unprecedented. The price of oil was zero. It is a matter of political effect, and he is very devastated. One of the important cohesion factors of the modern world is the consumption and trade of oil and its derivatives. The image of the mystical country, the largest exporter of black gold with which everyone aspires to join the alliance and from which no one wants to leave, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has for years been the ally on which US foreign policy has relied. He who controls the oil controls the world. So at least, plastically, Eurofanatics and Atlantics tried to explain to us, intellectually weaker persons, that Western supremacy has no alternative. Falling out of this system, one of the most important and influential elements, disrupts the already unstable balance of global politics and the order established after the collapse of the USSR.

Economic miracles in Europe are possible, and Serbia is a place where a miracle could happen. This follows from the extensive study "Serbia's New Growth Agenda" which the World Bank (WB) has just published. The council believes that with the reforms it proposes, real growth of gross domestic product (GDP) in the next twenty years could be seven percent per year. This is a spectacular average rate that would increase Serbia'S GDP almost four times in twenty years. The Council emphasizes that without the measures recommended in the study, GDP could grow at most three to four percent per year – not enough to bring Serbia closer to the European Union standard of living.
