Relations between Montenegro and Argentina date back to 1904, when Montenegro appointed the first honorary consul in Buenos Aires, Miloš Vukasović. Montenegro and the Argentine Republic nurture friendly relations, with huge potential for their further development in many areas, while the numerous Montenegrin diaspora in Argentina is a historical link between the two countries.
