On Friday, the Committee of Permanent Representatives of EU Member States (COREPER) approved Montenegro’s closure of three negotiation chapters: Chapter 7 – Intellectual Property Law, Chapter 10 – Information Society and Media, and Chapter 20 – Enterprise and Industrial Policy.
Montenegro has opened all negotiation chapters in its EU accession process and previously temporarily closed three chapters: Chapter 25 – Science and Research, Chapter 26 – Education and Culture, and Chapter 30 – External Relations.
