Montenegro’s president urges EU to grant country membership

In an interview with the Guardian, Jacov Milatovi says Brussels has an opportunity to renew its commitment to enlargement

The EU can demonstrate its renewed commitment to the principle of enlargement by admitting its longest standing applicant, Montenegro, within five years, the country's newly elected president has said.

Our membership would be a story about more than Montenegro. It would show to accession countries that the path of reform pays off," Jakov Milatovi said in an interview with the Guardian.
