Stating that they want to strengthen Montenegro’s position within the international police organization, Prime Minister Spajic said: “Montenegro is a reliable partner in the fight against international crime and should have its own representative at Interpol’s headquarters in Lyon in order to enhance cooperation with Interpol. This was clearly conveyed to us by Interpol Secretary General Valdes Urquiza during the meeting in Davos.”
