On June 26, a pivotal Intergovernmental Conference will be held in Brussels where European Union member states are expected to endorse a positive report on Montenegro’s fulfillment of interim benchmarks.
This significant step follows the recent approval by EU ambassadors, indicating Montenegro’s substantial progress in the chapters of judiciary, fundamental rights, justice, freedom, and security.
The report, now awaiting formal approval by the member states’ ministers, acknowledges Montenegro’s efforts in meeting the transitional criteria crucial for its EU accession process.
This positive assessment marks a crucial milestone for Montenegro, which has been negotiating its membership with the European Union for the past 12 years.
