On 20 May 2026, Deputy Secretary General, Ivana Pejović, participated on behalf of the CEI-Executive Secretariat in the official ceremony marking the 20th anniversary of the restoration of Montenegro’s independence, held in Podgorica upon invitation of the Prime Minister of Montenegro, Milojko Spajić.
The event represented an important occasion to commemorate one of the most significant milestones in Montenegro’s modern history and brought together high-level institutional representatives and international partners.
The participation of the CEI at the ceremony reaffirmed the Organisation’s longstanding commitment to regional dialogue, cooperation and European integration, as well as its close relations with Montenegro, an active Member State since 2006.
