Members of Monaco’s National Council welcomed the President of the Parliament of Montenegro this week, in a meeting highlighting the growing importance of cooperation between Europe’s small states…
Both countries are part of a group of nine nations that work together to strengthen their collective voice on the international stage. The discussions form part of ongoing efforts within the Assembly of Speakers of Parliaments of Small European States, which aims to build more structured and effective collaboration. For countries of limited size, such coordination is seen as essential, particularly as international organisations play an increasingly influential role in shaping national legislation.
This latest visit follows Monaco’s recent trip to Montenegro, where both sides agreed to deepen bilateral relations. Parliamentary dialogue is viewed as a key driver in reinforcing not only political ties but also economic partnerships between the two nations.
Beyond diplomacy, cooperation is already visible in sectors such as business and tourism. Nautical tourism, in particular, represents a shared area of interest, with both countries looking to develop opportunities that align with their coastal identities and economic ambitions.
Well-known Monaco-linked companies are also present in Montenegro, reflecting the tangible links between the two economies. These connections further underline the importance of sustained dialogue at both governmental and commercial levels.
For Monaco and Montenegro, strengthening ties through parliamentary cooperation is not just symbolic, it is a strategic step towards increasing their influence within the broader European and international landscape.
