In the year behind us, we worked hard to ensure a better economic and social environment, but also full legal security and the rule of law, Prime Minister of Montenegro Duško Marković said in a New Year's message.

"We tried to eliminate the weaknesses that jeopardized our system and the smooth functioning of the state and society as a whole. We have achieved success in economic policy - achieved significant economic growth as well as stability of the budget. I believe that today we can say that each of you felt some benefit from the results we achieved," PM Marković said.

He stressed that we will continue strongly next year in order to provide higher incomes for pensioners, employees in education and health care, but also in other sectors.

"We want to open new jobs and ensure regular and just social benefits. And of course, in the dialogue with employers, we want to provide a better standard of private sector employees," the Prime Minister said.

We succeeded, he stressed, in our development policies despite the still present need to defend the state and identity from those who still call for its disappearance.

"I want to say that Montenegro is the eternal home of all its citizens, and its sovereignty and independence cannot be the subject of discussion or compromise, and that is why I want to be close to one another in 2019, to better understand one another and return with our entire civil being to what has adorned Montenegro for centuries - and that is coexistence, harmony and tolerance," Prime Minister Marković stressed.

On behalf of the Government and in his own name, Prime Minister Duško Marković congratulated the citizens on New Year, wishing them good health, personal and family happiness.
