Podgorica, Montenegro (4 April 2019) - Prime Minister Duško Marković met earlier today with delegation of the Municipality of Ulcinj, led by President of the Municipality Ljoro Nrekić. The meeting noted that the Government of Montenegro is strongly focused on the development of Ulcinj, and the improvement of the overall infrastructure creates conditions for the valorization of rich natural resources.

Congratulating the citizens and local leadership on the forthcoming Ulcinj Municipality Day, Prime Minister Marković emphasised the importance of responsible attitude towards public finance and praised the results the local government achieved in terms of stabilizing public finances.

PM Marković stressed that it is important that infrastructure projects are implemented in a satisfactory and a high-quality manner. He recalled the fund that will be formed through the economic citizenship programme, in which money will be allocated for the improvement of local infrastructure in less developed municipalities.

The meeting paid special attention to investments in tourism. Both sides identified the need to increase the high-class hotel capacities. Furthermore, they discussed challenges the local administration faces with and the ways to overcome them.

President of the Municipality Nrekić said that in the next two years they expect an increase in investments and a more dynamic development of the municipality.

Prime Minister Marković said that the Government will support the municipality of Ulcinj in all issues important for citizens, as well as in creating conditions for improving quality of life.
