Montenegrin Prime Minister Spaji meets with Wang Yi

On October 18, 2026 local time, Prime Minister Milojko Spaji of Montenegro met with Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Podgorica. Spaji asked Wang Yi to convey his sincere greetings to Chinese leaders, and said that he received warm hospitality from the Chinese side when attending a meeting in China in June this year, and that the Chinese Foreign Minister's visit today demonstrates the importance the Chinese side attaches to Montenegro-China relations. Montenegro and China share common historical memory and traditional friendship, and both once resisted fascism and foreign aggression during World War II. Montenegro highly values China's major-country status and influence, and appreciates that China, with a responsible attitude in the Middle East conflict, has curbed the rise in global oil prices and helped Montenegro and other small and medium-sized countries tide over the energy crisis, demonstrating its responsibility and sense of duty as a major country.
