Montenegro is navigating significant political turbulence as the Democratic People’s Party (DNP) threatens to withdraw from the ruling coalition over a disputed wastewater treatment project, while local development and EU accession efforts press forward.
The coalition strain stems from the DNP’s demand for a "comprehensive dialogue" reflecting a local referendum rejecting the wastewater treatment plant in Zeta, with talks between DNP leaders and Prime Minister Milojko Spajić stalling. Should the DNP quit, the government risks losing its majority, which could jeopardize Montenegro’s ambitious 2026 reform agenda tied to its EU membership goal by 2028.
Amidst this political backdrop, Tivat’s Mayor Željko Komnenović is forging ahead with the municipality’s 2026 budget, emphasizing education, sports, culture, and digitalization. The plan aligns with Montenegro’s push for sustainable tourism and infrastructure upgrades, including hotel expansion and enhanced urban aesthetics, critical for EU-driven development standards.
Meanwhile, Montenegro’s sports scene remains active, though no headline events are scheduled today. Domestic basketball leagues keep the competitive spirit alive, and the national football team reflects on a challenging qualification period for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Notably, municipalities like Tivat continue to prioritize sports funding, linking grassroots activity with broader community growth and international positioning.
