Marta Kos: Montenegro has closed more than half of the chapters, time to take it

European Commissioner for Enlargement, Marta Kos, has announced that Montenegro has already closed more than half of the negotiation chapters.

In a post on the "X" platform, Kos writes that this Tuesday Montenegro has closed the chapters on Competition Policy and Customs Union, bringing the total to 18 out of 33 negotiation chapters.

The Commissioner writes that reforms under these two chapters mean operating under the same rules as in the rest of the EU, with less administrative burden and fewer border controls, creating more opportunities for both Montenegrin and European businesses.

She emphasizes that it is time for Montenegro to double down on reforms and finalize the integration process.

Montenegro has already closed more than half of its negotiation chapters. On this Super Tuesday for Enlargement, it closed the chapters on Competition Policy and Customs Union, bringing the total to 18 out of 33 negotiating chapters.

Reforms under these two chapters mean operating under the same rules as in the rest of the EU, with less administrative burden and fewer border controls, creating more opportunities for both Montenegrin and European businesses today. Now is the time to double down on reforms and bring Montenegro to the finish line.

It is no longer just about a planned luxury resort, but about the question of who owns Albania’s coastline and who benefits from the country’s economic boom.

Andi Bushati: An autumn with an end-of-regime atmosphere

Whether it's his own party's own dice that throw him a punch, whether it's citizens who boo him in the street, whether it's the brave SPAK prosecutors who have gotten close to his throat, or international journalists who compare him to the godfather, one thing shows that Edi Rama's political curve has reached its end. His propaganda narrative is already over.

Blendi Kajsiu: Prime Minister's misunderstanding on anti-corruption

The fact that no institution of our public administration noticed that millions of euros were invested in phantom incinerators, that AKSHI was controlled by an ordinary criminal, that the directors of the Municipality of Tirana awarded tenders to themselves, or that the police director and the director of SHISH worked for Gysi, shows that we do not have a public administration and a state.
