Đukanović, Etgen: Closing the EU door is not a good message

President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, received today Fernand Etgen, Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, whose delegation is paying an official visit to Montenegro. The meeting tackled the enlargement policy and both sides assessed that closing the door is not a good message for countries that are so close.

The President emphasized serious friendship connecting Montenegro and Luxembourg best proved by the frequent and high-quality dialogue between the two countries. He stressed that Luxembourg has continuously defended the interests of Montenegro in Europe, as well as the whole region, which is particularly significant given the importance of the stability of each Western Balkan country.

Informing Mr Etgen about the opportunities in Montenegro, the President underlined the priorities: further economic development at the level of modern Europe, adoption of a European system of values ​​and quality of life for our citizens.

“What attracts us is the idea of ​​Europeanization of the WB and a return to our European home, whose stability and competitiveness we all need to contribute together.”

Speaker of the Luxembourg Chamber of Deputies thanked the President for his warm welcome during his first official visit, assessing that Montenegro has changed a lot over the past years, following the restoration of independence, and that its transformation process ran parallel to the country’s integration into international structures and organizations, including NATO.
