Embassy of the United States, Podgorica

The Embassy of the United States in Podgorica is the diplomatic mission of the United States of America in Montenegro. The United States has been a supporter of Montenegro's integration into Euro-Atlantic institutions. On June 5, 2017, Montenegro became the thirtieth member of NATO, and accession negotiations with the European Union opened in 2012. Montenegro's contributions to international peacekeeping efforts, including its deployment of troops to Afghanistan, have further solidified the bilateral relationship. U.S. Government assistance continues to focus on aiding Montenegro as it transitions towards a market-based democracy integrated within Euro-Atlantic frameworks.
