Accession negotiations could be finished by the end of the year, according to the European Commission. If the prediction holds, this would be the final regular progress report before membership, suggesting the long-standing goal of joining the bloc is moving from a prospect to a schedule.
The diplomatic calendar is becoming busier elsewhere as a new visa regime for five countries begins tomorrow. Belarus has already responded by requiring visas for Montenegrin citizens, though China has chosen the opposite path by extending its visa-free policy until the end of the year.
The Ministry of Justice is reportedly under a cyberattack, while the Central Election Commission may finally be formed next week. In the courts, a man from Kotor was sentenced to 17 years in prison for child sexual abuse.
