Summary: EPO President António Campinos queries the Montenegrin President Milo Djukanović about his unsavory reputation as an autocrat. Djukanović assures Campinos of his loyalty.
Djukanovic - a Balkan strongman and "stabilocrat" - has dominated the political life of the minuscule Adriatic state for the last three decades and he successfully led Montenegro into the NATO fold in June 2017.
In 2015, the investigative journalist network OCCRP designated Djukanović as
Person of the Year in Corruption and Organised Crime.
To mark the "landmark occasion" of
Montenegro's accession to the EPC - which will take effect on 1 October 2022 - an in-depth exposé of the
EPO's new member state is in the pipeline and should be ready for publication in early September.
