"The accession of the Western
Balkans to the European Union would significantly contribute to
the continent's stability," and "Montenegro has made great
strides by establishing itself as a front-runner in the European
path," said the Secretary General of the CEI Franco Dal Mas
during a meeting in Podgorica with Montenegrin Deputy Prime
Minister for International Relations and Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Ervin Ibrahimovic.
"The CEI is ready to support Montenegro with concrete actions
such as the 'Falcone-Borsellino' project aimed at promoting
judicial diplomacy and strengthening the fight against
corruption and organised crime," Dal Mas stated on the occasion.
Ibrahimovic, for his part, stated that Montenegro's accession
to the EU by 2028 would send an important message of peace and
encouragement to the other countries in the region.
