European Enlargement Commissioner, Olivér Várhelyi, said today that the first official visit of the future Montenegrin prime minister, Mr Zdravko Krivokapić, would probably take place in  Brussels and that it would be a positive signal for all EU members.

He said that the new government in Podgorica hadn’t changed views referring to international duties of Montenegro.

Mr Várhelyi adds that proposed members of the new government “are young professionals, with little political experience”.

Commissioner concludes that the EU will continue to support Montenegro on its integration path and in the recovery from the COVID-19 consequences.

Speaking in front of the EP Foreign Affairs Committee, Mr Várhelyi said that Montenegro was worst-hit by the COVID-19 pandemic of all countries in the region, due to great dependence on tourism.
