The Serbian Parliament voted not to pass a law which would ban the mining of lithium in the country following 4 days of fierce debate.

The draft law was proposed by 86 opposition MPs. It was intended to amend the existing law on mining and geological exploration.

MP rejected the vote with 128 votes against and 84 in favor. The Serbian parliament has 250 seats with the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) and its partners holding the majority.

MPs refused to vote individually in public, casting their votes through the electronic voting system.

MPs spent the past four days trading accusations and insults
