Enlargement commissioner visits Montenegro
The European Commission reported that Commissioner Marta Kos visited Montenegro over two days. She joined the celebrations for Montenegro Statehood Day with President Jakov Milatovic, met Prime Minister Milojko Spajic to review reform progress, and took part in a seabed cleanup in Kotor tied to nature protection reforms. She pressed for sustained reform momentum and cross-party unity to keep the country on its negotiating timeline. The page repeats that Montenegro has opened all 33 negotiating chapters and provisionally closed 16, and notes that member states have agreed to begin drafting its accession treaty. No chapter opened or closed and no conference was held during the visit.

Кожна смуга охоплює діапазон від найранішої до найпізнішої оцінки, а найімовірніший рік позначено синім. Розмитий правий край означає відсутність чіткої верхньої межі через війну або політичний застій. Шкала починається з 2028 року.
Поза графіком
- Bosnia and Herzegovina. Candidate since December 2022. Negotiations have not formally opened: no negotiating framework adopted, no first conference held.
- Georgia. Candidate since December 2023. The accession process is on hold over concerns about democratic backsliding.
- Turkiye. Negotiations opened in 2005 but have been frozen since 2018, with no chapters moving.
- Kosovo. Applied in December 2022. A potential candidate, candidate status not yet granted.
За чим ми стежимо
- Ukraine and Moldova could open more negotiation clusters around the middle of July. No Council or Commission text confirms a date, and the Irish presidency has spoken only of one or perhaps two clusters before the summer break. We are holding this until a primary source confirms it.
- North Macedonia. Press reports say Commissioner Kos pressed for the constitutional amendments recognizing Bulgarians as the condition for a second intergovernmental conference. The Commission page on her visit does not state this, so we treat it as press reporting and not yet as data.
- Kosovo. The 30 June reform step under the Reform and Growth Facility still has no published Commission assessment. The Commission has said an assessment will follow later this month. We record nothing until it publishes.
