📌 Director of the Center for Climate Change at UDG, Ivana Vojinovic commented for Pobjeda📰 on the European Commission 🇪🇺 Report for Montenegro 🇲🇪 on Chapter 27 – Environment and Climate Change
The previous two governments did not seriously engage with this chapter nor worked on fulfilling the final criteria, thus it remained stagnant at the level of results achieved in 2020. Instead of learning from the lessons of the previous two reports and seriously committing to implementing the recommendations, they were ignored – stated Ivana Vojinović
