  • The Kosovo-Montenegro border demarcation was a diplomatic agreement between the disputed area of Kosovo and Montenegro which was finalized in 2015 about the eventual borders between them. Montenegro acquired its independence in 2006 and Kosovo unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008. As such, there was no border agreement between them. The diplomatic negotiations between the governments of Kosovo and Montenegro came under heavy criticism from both sides. Around 8,000 hectares (20,000 acres) of land stretching 60 kilometres (37 mi) had remained disputed. An article by Saudi Gazette stated it was roughly 18,900 acres. Montenegro's then-Prime Minister Milo Đukanović stated that "Montenegro does not even need one meter from the territory of Kosovo". The border demarcation deal with Montenegro was one of the explicit requirements by the European Parliament for the visa liberalization process for Kosovo. In 2015, Ramush Haradinaj insisted that the 1974 Yugoslav borders were necessary in order to continue the good relations with Montenegro. The agreement was ratified by both governments in 2015 and was enforced March 2018 leading to Čakor, an Albanian region symbolizing patriotism, being handed over to Montenegro. The president of Kosovo Hashim Thaçi and Montenegro's prime minister signed the agreement on February 17, 2018. It was ratified in the Kosovan parliament a month later. The agreement has been criticized as the prohibition to travel within the Schengen area had been lifted for more severe border issues amongst Georgia and Ukraine but not for Kosovo with its less severe border issues.
