Montenegro currently has no ambassadors in 18 countries. The data are published on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

According to the same data, Montenegro has ambassadors in Belgium, France, Greece, Italy, Romania, the Russian Federation, North Macedonia, Turkey and Ukraine.

According to the Constitution of Montenegro, the president appoints and dismisses ambassadors and heads of other diplomatic missions abroad with the proposal of the government and with the opinion of the Assembly Committee responsible for international relations.

Replacing a large number of ambassadors appointed by the Djukanovic government was one of the first moves of the 42nd Government of former Prime Minister Zdravko Krivokapic.

On the other hand, the head of state Milo Djukanovic refused to approve most of the ambassadors proposed by the government.

Even today, almost two years after the appointment of the first government, the situation has not changed.
