"At the same time, I want to congratulate you on the first anniversary of assuming the office of president, and to express my sincere satisfaction for the long-standing friendship that exists between Montenegro and Germany. Over the past months, your country has made some progress on its way to the European Union. This includes, first of all, the successful implementation of important reforms in the area of ​​the rule of law and the judiciary, as well as the holding of two intergovernmental conferences since the beginning of this year. These steps are a confirmation of Montenegro's determination to see its future in membership in the European Union. On the way to the European Union, Montenegro must continue to show vision, perseverance, and sometimes the courage to make difficult political decisions. My meetings with you and with many of your compatriots inspire me with optimism that you will be up to the level of those challenges", wrote Štejnmayer, as announced by Milatović's cabinet.
