Podgorica, Montenegro (5 June 2019) -- Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Policy and Financial System Milutin Simović hosted earlier today UN Assistant Secretary-General Mirjana Spoljarić Eger. Following the bilateral meeting, DPM Simović and Ms Spoljaric Egger spoke at the opening of the "Green Days 2019 - Achieving Green Growth Potential", sponsored by UNDP, the Government of Montenegro and the Chamber of Commerce.

DPM Simović thanked Ms Spoljaric Egger for her arrival in Montenegro and accepting to take part in the "Green Days 2019" conference. He emphasised that her participation in this conference makes it respectable and significant, both in Montenegro and beyond.

The Deputy Prime Minister stressed that the Government of Montenegro understood the need to organise a conference on this topic, in the year when Montenegro in the negotiations with the EU opened Chapter 27 - Environment and Climate Change, and in the years in which the Government is determined to make significant advances in economic and overall social development.
