Chief Negotiator Aleksandar Drljevic spoke for Nova M on the election of a new European Parliament rapporteur for Montenegro and the EU’s enlargement policy.
Chief Negotiator Drljević stressed that the fact that a new rapporteur in the European Parliament, Tonino Picula comes from neighboring Croatia, could be helpful to our country as well as to the entire Western Balkans, because his previously statements were in favour of the enlargement policy and further integration of Montenegro into the European Union.
“We have to continue with the implementation of the reform activities, especially in the negotiating chapters 23 and 24 which are of particular interest. For us it is very important to receive the benchmarks for these chapters, and to finalize what we started in certain chapters we expect to be ready for potential closure in the coming period, “Drljevic explained.
“On the other hand, we expect that the European Union will adequately respond to and actualise enlargment policy,” the Chief Negotiator concluded.
