Montenegro Says EU Working to Fix Euro Issue Hindering Accession

The European Union is working on resolving the thorny issue of Montenegro’s unilateral use of the euro, an obstacle for the Adriatic nation’s plans to join the bloc, Finance Minister Novica Vukovic said.

“The European Commission has shown readiness to solve the question in a pragmatic way,” Vukovic told Bloomberg News. The EU’s proposal to fix the issue is expected by the end of May, he said.
