A dispute has emerged in Baošići, Montenegro, regarding coastal development projects conducted by the company ‘Carine’ DOO within the protected Kotor UNESCO World Heritage area.

The Protector of Property-Legal Interests of Montenegro, Bojana Ćirović, has alleged that the company violated contractual obligations and performed works without necessary approvals. Ćirović recommended terminating the maritime domain lease agreement and restoring the site to its original state. 

In response, Carine has rejected these allegations, maintaining that all activities complied with legal regulations and valid building permits. The company has also disputed media reports regarding UNESCO’s stance, asserting that the official UNESCO World Heritage Committee decision does not mention the Baošići project or label it as controversial. Carine claims that recent negative coverage was based on a draft report rather than official findings and noted that conservation conditions were provided by authorities after urban-technical conditions had already been issued.
