The Montenegro held a REFERENDUM TO LEAVE THE UNION WITH SERBIA MAY 21ST 2006

55.5% of the population voted for independence


By 23RD MAY the preliminary referendum RESULT was RECOGNISE BY ALL FIVE PERMANENT MEMBERS OF THE SECURITY COUNCIL, indicating widespread international recognition of Montenegro once independence is formally declared.

Montenegro's referendum commission on Wednesday 31 May, officially confirmed the results of the country's 21st of May referendum on independence from Serbia.


The Montenegrin Parliament made a FORMAL DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE ON SUNDAY 3rd OF JUNE


Because the declaration of independence was very recent there are many countries that are yet to formally recognise this..
The most recent countries to formally recognise Montenegrin independence are Cyprus and the Netherlands on June 16th

And Montenegro doesn't have a seat on the UN yet because Serbia will inherit the seat vacated by the union of Serbia and Montenegro. Montenegro is not likely to gain a place until September..because the wheels of independence take a long time, and there is no a lot of administrative jobs to be done...

There won't be any big changes (especially for the visitor) because Montenegro has been separated for a long time from Serbia.. For example they have been using a different currency ..(the EU whilst Serbia had the dinar)

Earlier this month. In recent decades, Montenegro was a constituent member of various incarnations of Yugoslavia and the state union of Serbia and Montenegro. Based on the results of a referendum held on May 21, 2006, Montenegro declared independence on June 3, 2006.
