New York, the USA (26 September 2018) -- Relations between Montenegro and the United States are the relations of a stable partnership, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Montenegro Srđan Darmanović said in an interview with the Voice of America in New York, where he is taking part in the session of the UN General Assembly.

"These are relations of a stable partnership, stable cooperation within NATO, bilateral relations of great understanding and similar views on world problems regardless it is about two countries of unequal size and importance. These relations are as good as always and we are fully convinced that Article 5 of the Washington Treaty is as firm as it was before," Minister Darmanović stressed when asked to comment on the current relations between Montenegro and the USA.

When asked about the negotiations between Serbia and Kosovo, Minister Darmanović noted that Montenegro has always strongly supported the dialogue between Serbia and Kosovo, but that the country's position in terms of announcements of border change is that the security and stability of the region is of primary significance.

"What can bring a solution based on the exchange of territory - this has always been a delicate issue in the Balkans. It must come with the guarantees that the Balkans will remain stable. We all have to take care of some wider architecture of the Western Balkans in order not to endanger it," Minister Darmanović said answering the question about Montenegro's position on the negotiations between Serbia and Kosovo.
