Joint Patrols on the Montenegrin Coast: Seven Countries, One Mission!
Starting today, September 1st, the Montenegrin coast is not just hosting tourists but also… seven countries! Yes, you read that right! Uniformed police officers from Croatia, Serbia, North Macedonia, Albania, Italy, Kosovo, and Romania are joining forces with Montenegrin colleagues in joint patrols.
Why does this matter?
This project, known as the “Safe Tourist Season,” has been running for 15 years and aims to ensure the safety of tourists and citizens during the hot summer months. Police forces from the region come as support to Montenegrin police to maintain a stable security environment and prevent incidents.
How will it work?
Police officers from seven countries will be uniformed and patrol together with Montenegrin colleagues in coastal municipalities. Their role is not only to maintain order but also to assist tourists and citizens if needed. Contact with these officers will be possible through known police department numbers.
Regional cooperation in action!
This cooperation is not just symbolic — it proves that the region can unite for a common goal. The Montenegrin Police Directorate has been successfully cooperating with police organizations from these countries for 15 years, and this project is just one example of how security can be elevated.
Is this the end of problems?
Of course not! Security is a complex challenge, but initiatives like this send a clear message: tourists and citizens of Montenegro can count on serious support and regional solidarity.
Conclusion
If you planned to enjoy the Montenegrin coast this September, know that you are protected not only by local police but also by seven countries from the region. Joint patrols are here to ensure you a peaceful and safe vacation. And if you happen to meet a police officer from Italy or Romania, feel free to say hi — they are here for you!
And honestly, who hasn’t thought: “If we already have seven countries in one place, will football teams soon play together too?” Drop your thoughts in the comments about this regional cooperation — is it the future or just another seasonal story?
Slobodan Dakić and the Pogledine Katun
For those who like a different kind of story, don’t miss the tale of Slobodan Dakić, the last shepherd of the Pogledine katun on Durmitor. While police patrol the coast, Slobodan keeps tradition and his flock in the mountains. Two worlds, two stories, both worth attention.
Stay tuned, follow, comment, and remember — security is a shared responsibility, and when seven countries unite, that’s a real regional league!
