After the claim that Turkish citizens were involved in the knife attack in the country turned out to be unfounded, Montenegro is preparing to reverse its decision to cancel the visa-free travel arrangement with Turkey. Montenegro's Foreign Minister Ervin Ibrahimovic stated that he believes the decision will be revoked within 10 to 15 days.

Montenegro's Foreign Minister Ervin Ibrahimovic stated that he believes the decision to suspend the visa-free travel arrangement with Turkey, which his country made some time ago, will be canceled within 10-15 days.

Montenegro's Foreign Minister Ervin Ibrahimovic held a joint press conference with German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, who was on an official visit to the capital of Montenegro, Podgorica.

MONTENEGRO WILL CANCEL THE VISA-FREE TRAVEL BAN TO TURKEY

In response to a question regarding the suspension of the visa-free travel arrangement with Turkey following an incident at the end of October in Montenegro, which allegedly involved Turkish citizens, Ibrahimovic said, "We are in constant communication with the Prime Minister (Milojko Spajic). I believe that the decision to suspend the visa-free travel arrangement (with Turkey) will be canceled within 10-15 days."

Ibrahimovic reported that there has been an increase in activity at Turkey's diplomatic missions in Montenegro following the suspension of the visa-free travel arrangement.

IT HAS BEEN REVEALED THAT TURKS WERE NOT INVOLVED IN THE INCIDENTS

Montenegrin media reported allegations of a knife attack involving Turkish citizens in Podgorica, after which Montenegrin Prime Minister Spajic stated in a post on the social media platform of the US-based X company that the visa-free travel arrangement for Turkish citizens had been temporarily suspended.

The High Court of Podgorica also reported that two individuals arrested due to the allegations of a "knife attack involving Turkish citizens" in the capital Podgorica had no connection to the incident and were released.
