"Montenegro is clearly oriented towards the protection and promotion of the universal values of UNESCO, as well as further investment in science, and is ready to further deepen cooperation with this organization. I can assure you that Montenegro remains strongly committed to the development of science and innovation, and additionally motivates us the fact that the European Commission in the latest Report on Montenegro recognized and praised the efforts and concrete results of our country in this area" concludes Bečić's congratulatory message.
