Montenegro's EU finish line is in sight, but hardest stretch remains
Original: EU ENLARGEMENT: Montenegro’s EU finish line is in sight, but the final stretch could be the hardest
Montenegro is the closest of the Western Balkan candidates to joining the European Union, but analysts warn the final stage of accession could prove the most difficult. Negotiations on remaining chapters, rule-of-law reforms and unanimity among member states could still slow the country's path to membership despite its front-runner position in EU enlargement.
Why now: Montenegro's accession talks are advancing, renewing attention on whether the EU will actually admit its first new member in years.
