The Prime Minister of Montenegro Milojko Spajić will meet with the Prime Minister of Greece Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Athens on April 10, the Government announced.
The announcement adds that in anticipation of his visit to Greece, Spajić spoke with Kostas Fragojanis, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs.
The Government said that during the meeting Greece's full support for the EU path to Montenegro was apostrophized.
"We look at you very positively, we admire the work you have done and what you have achieved in a short time. Greece strongly supports a unified Europe, including the integrated Western Balkans. We are fully committed to the idea of Montenegro becoming a full member of the EU. We are ready to offer expert help, but also joint cooperation in several areas," said Fragojanis.
Spajić emphasized that Greece can be an excellent example, because it has made exceptional economic reforms and achieved impressive results.
"We are working hard on the EU agenda and obtaining IBAR, and your help would be of great importance here. We are also focused on economic reforms, because we want to ensure the even and sustainable growth of Montenegro. Our intention is to be an example to the region and to build bridges on the way to a single European family," said the Prime Minister.
The announcement states that during the conversation, the huge potential for closer economic cooperation between the two countries was highlighted, and in this context it was stated that the organization of the business forum could be a platform for creating numerous ideas for cooperation.
"Prime Minister Spajić presented a plan for large infrastructure investments, which could be a chance for the participation of Greek companies. The possibility of cooperation in the fields of renewable energy sources, biotechnological and pharmaceutical industries, as well as maritime transport was apostrophized. Greece is ready to provide technical support and offer financing models for development. It was concluded that there is an interest in the arrival of Greek banks on the Montenegrin market," concludes the Government announcement.
