President of the United States of America Barack Obama congratulated Prime Minister of Montenegro Duško Marković on the occasion of his appointment as Prime Minister.

“Our nations share a partnership anchored not only in common interests, but also in common values. The United States is committed to advancing the security of both our countries and to defending our shared values, one of the main reasons why the United States are firm supporters of Montenegro’s efforts to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation,” President Obama’s letter reads.

President Obama pointed out that the US is “encouraged by Montenegro’s efforts to strengthen the rule of law and to participate in and contribute to the project of European integration,“ adding that the US “look forward to the new chapters in our partnership that lie ahead.”

The US Ambassador to Montenegro Margaret Ann Uyehara presented President Obama’s letter to Prime Minister Duško Marković earlier today.
