The 27 give their approval to the working group for the Montenegro accession treaty

(ANSA) - BELGRADE, APR 22 - The establishment of an ad hoc working group in charge of drafting Montenegro's accession treaty has been approved by 27 EU member countries. A spokesperson for the Cyprus EU Presidency made the announcement. "The Presidency," he said, "has worked hard to ensure that the working group is established as soon as possible, especially given the extensive technical work that must be completed before the actual drafting of the accession treaty can begin." "We are confident," he said, "that this will send a clear signal that accession is within reach of the enlargement partners." (ANSA).
