Croatia-Montenegro diplomatic tensions

Overview

Diplomatic tensions emerged between Croatia and Montenegro following remarks by Croatian Foreign Minister Gordan Grlić Radman during a visit to Montenegro. The Minister raised concerns regarding the succession of military assets from the former Yugoslavia, which Zagreb values at over $2.7 billion, and questioned the pace of Montenegro’s EU accession negotiations.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos reportedly expressed surprise at these statements. Montenegrin officials have communicated their positions to EU leadership, noting that bilateral issues were being raised during the final stages of Montenegro’s European integration process.
