Markovic: After joining NATO, the European agenda is the most important topic

Prime minister Dusko Markovic said that European integration was a strategic priority of the Government.

Markovic participated in the regular working meeting of the ambassadors of the member states of the European Union and the head of EU Delegation to Montenegro Aivo Orav, hosted by the ambassador of the Republic of Bulgaria Mladen Chervenyakov, as a diplomatic representative of the state presiding the Council of the European Union.

At a two-hour meeting highlighting the priorities of the Bulgarian presidency – the future of Europe for Youth, the Western Balkans and Connectivity, Security and Stability and the Digital Economy – PM Markovic reiterated that, after joining NATO, the process of European integration is a strategic priority of the government.

“The European agenda is the most important topic for the government,” the PM said, pointing out Montenegro’s full commitment to continuing reforms and the country’s readiness to fulfil all obligations within the integration process.

Markovic welcomed the goals of the Bulgarian presidency as balanced and well-chosen, particularly emphasising the fact that the Western Balkans was a priority not only during Bulgarian presidency, but also in the next two cycles in which Austria and Romania will take the presidency.

“The announced EU strategy, as well as the upcoming summit in Sofia and London, whose topics are the Western Balkans and its European perspective, is encouraging for the entire region,” Markovic said at a meeting with ambassadors.
