According to Tanjug, as Belgrade media report, the plan on enhanced regional co-operation was designed on the insistence of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic.
According to an unnamed source from diplomatic circles, this would be a model of an economic union of the countries within the region, which would cooperate with the EU until full membership is reached by each country individually.
"The Western Balkans need to better connect. It would be a model of an economic union in which all countries cooperate, strengthen their markets economically and, when the time to join EU comes, enter the EU as economically strong countries", daily Kurir's source explains.
According to this daily, Montenegrin President Milo Djukanovic supported Vucic's idea of establishing close regional cooperation.
Wow, Montenegro president agrees with Serbia? I thought they were pro West, pro NATO, anti Serb in every way that they established a Montenegro orthodox church and lobby the UN to recognise Montenegro as an official language. Why the sudden change of tune? Did he realise he was taken for a ride and he is worried about his popularity and his election promises is all a fairy tale story promising Montenegro prosperity like Germany once they become a EU member???
