But then I thought back to Barbara Tuchman’s ‘The March of Folly ’– an examination of why governments throughout history have doggedly pursued policies which were clearly contrary to their own self-interest. On the face of it, this sounds absurd. But there are countless examples, from every continent and period. And the reason it happens is that, time and again, the voice of reason is drowned out by other voices – ambition, fear, pride, prejudice, self-deception.

A discussion ensued about re-designing the existing world as painlessly as possible, while harmonizing national poli-cies, setting up supervision institutions, and reforming in-ternational organizations with the aim of preventing future downfalls and securing sustainable development. Re-thinking, re-designing and re-setting values, norms, and incentives that will re-shape the society, the global economic model, and the way we manage the world were the key topics of this year’s World Economic Forum in Davos.

Each country has its own historical, religious, national, and other distinctions, but it seems irrational that these countries cannot share a common interest on the path to EU accession, whether on bilateral or multilateral bases. Let’s not forget that joining the EU entails exactly the values that the regional countries seem to refuse to accept: understanding, being considerate about individual and above all mutually beneficial interests, cohabitation, joint projects, assisting each other, and cooperation in almost all important areas of life.
The man who has been running the company throughout these trials and tribulations and who managed to untangle the complicated web that this huge company entangled itself in is called Kirill Kravchenko. He is only 33 years old, and with a rational and assertive management of the company, he succeeded in resolving the inherited problems, applying new solutions and raising overall company efficiency. Now, at the end of the first full business year, C.E.O. of Petroleum Industry of Serbia Kirill Kravchenko gave an exclusive interview to CorD magazine.
