The President of the Assembly, Danijela Đurović, said that the humanitarian and financial crisis threatens to have serious consequences for many countries in the world.
Đurović met with the head of the Croatian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Cooperation Process in Southeast Europe, Ivana Posavec Krivec, as part of the First Parliamentary Summit of the International Crimean Platform.
Đurović, as reported, reminded that in June of this year Montenegro assumed the presidency of the Cooperation Process in Southeast Europe, and expressed her readiness to do everything to awaken the spirit of solidarity and unity among the participants of this regional forum.
This, as she said, is especially important in the current circumstances when we have war events on the soil of Europe, and a humanitarian and financial crisis that threaten to cause serious consequences to numerous countries of the world.
Đurović, as stated in the announcement of the Parliament of Montenegro, informed Posavec Krivec about the Montenegrin priorities of presiding over the Cooperation Process in Southeast Europe.
The priorities are, as she said, the strengthening of security cooperation, the protection of human rights, the rule of law and the strengthening of democratic institutions, the improvement of economic cooperation and infrastructural connectivity, the green transition, further overcoming the health, economic and other consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic and the European integration of aspirant countries from of the region of Southeast Europe.
Posavec Krivec, as they say, expressed interest in the activities that our country will carry out within the framework of the presidency, and pointed out that Montenegro will have all the necessary support from the Croatian delegation at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Cooperation Process in Southeast Europe.
She apostrophized that Montenegro made the biggest step towards the European Union, which should be adequately rewarded.
"The interlocutors agreed that in the current geopolitical circumstances the region of the Western Balkans should be under the special focus of the European Union and that it should be given the opportunity to progress as quickly as possible towards the European family of peoples," the announcement states.
