Affirming the support of the United States for Montenegro's accession to the European Union.

This House resolution formally expresses U.S. support for Montenegro’s membership in the European Union and endorses continued U.S. efforts to help Montenegro meet EU accession standards. It recognizes Montenegro’s independent path since 2006, its NATO participation since 2017, and ongoing reforms aimed at reducing corruption and countering hybrid threats. The measure also highlights bilateral ties with the U.S. state of Maine (via the State Partnership Program) and Montenegro’s broader role in regional stability and in supporting Ukraine against Russia. Importantly, the resolution calls for advocating Montenegro’s EU accession without introducing new bilateral conditions and urges ongoing U.S. support for Western Balkan EU enlargement and Euro-Atlantic integration. As a non-binding resolution, it expresses policy preferences and diplomatic intent rather than creating new legal obligations or funding.
