*

Cetinje, (MINA-BUSINESS) – President of Montenegro Milo Djukanovic has said that Montenegro should continue to face consequences of the coronavirus pandemic equally seriously and efficiently, adding that the inevitable economic losses will be reduced to the bearable level in that way.

On the occasion of the end of the second year of his term of office, he said that Montenegro had continued to make progress in the right direction and at a good pace.

“The main precondition is to have an efficient and comprehensive response to the next phase of our fight against the consequences of the pandemic,” Djukanovic said at a press conference.

He said that the forecasts of relevant international organizations concerning the extent of the potential contraction of global economy this year were frightening, especially for the countries relying on the tourism and service sectors.

“Not a single day, not a single opportunity must be lost until the end of the year. With such an approach, we will reduce the inevitable economic losses to the bearable level this year,” said Djukanovic.
