This year proved much better for Montenegro's European integration bid, however, as the country was granted formal candidate status during the EU leaders' summit in Brussels last week, two years after Podgorica submitted its official application for membership.
Međutim, ova godina pokazala se kao mnogo bolja za nastojanja Crne Gore u smeru evropske integracije, jer je zemlja dobila zvanični status kandidata tokom samita lidera EU u Briselu prošle nedelje, dve godine nakon što je Podgorica podnela zvaničan zahtev za članstvo.
