Montenegro pushes EU accession with reforms and diplomatic backing
Montenegro’s parliament has recently passed a bundle of laws aimed at meeting obligations of the European Union agenda, including amendments to internal affairs legislation, the national security agency, the constitution‑amendment process and election rules. Observers attribute the rapid legislative pace to sustained pressure from EU officials, notably European Commission President Ursula Brisel and EU delegation head Johan Satler, who praised the parliament’s work as a significant step toward EU membership.
Swedish diplomat Jan Lundin, former ambassador to Montenegro and Serbia, echoed the sentiment, stating that Montenegro is “first in line” for EU accession. Lundin highlighted recent improvements in the country’s tourism infrastructure, such as a new cable‑car system and upgraded road links toward the Serbian border, as evidence of the nation’s progressing readiness for EU integration.
