Inflation in Montenegro is more than twice as high as in European Union (EU) countries, and the authorities are not taking adequate measures, Boris Mugoša, Social Democrat (SD) MP, chairman of the parliamentary committee for economy, finance and budget and representative of the European Union, announced today.
"Yesterday, at the Committee on Economy, Finance and Budget, based on our initiative and that of opposition MPs, we adopted a Decision on the control hearing of Niko Đeljošaj, Deputy Prime Minister of the Government of Montenegro for Economic Policy, on the topic: 'Inflation in Montenegro and its effects on the living standards of citizens', which will be held on October 6, 2025 at 1:00 p.m.," Mugoša stated on the X network.
He added that at the end of March, at his initiative, a parliamentary hearing was held on prices in retail chains, where the Committee unanimously proposed specific measures to protect citizens' standards and systematically address the issue of high prices, but to date there has been no response from the authorities on this issue.
"The reality is that inflation in Montenegro is more than twice as high as in EU countries that use the euro, and the reality is that the authorities are not taking adequate measures on this issue," Mugoša said.
