The Secretary General stressed that Prime Minister Duško Marković will join the meeting tomorrow.

"The parliaments of all 28 Allies and Montenegro have now ratified the country's accession to NATO. This is a step forward for Montenegro; for stability in the Western Balkans; and for our vision of a Europe whole, free and at peace. We look forward to formally welcoming Montenegro as our 29th Ally in early June," Stoltenberg said.

Answering the journalist's question about open door policy, SG Stoltenberg said that welcoming Montenegro shows that NATO's door is open.
