Montenegrin parties that formed an alliance to win parliamentary elections in 2020 agreed on Friday to form a new government, following last month's no-confidence vote in the cabinet of Prime Minister Dritan Abazovic.
The new majority of 41 deputies in the 81-seat parliament will comprise pro-Serb and pro-Western parties that in 2020 ousted a coalition led by the Democratic Party of Socialists of long-serving President Milo Djukanovic.
"This is a good opportunity to inform the president ... and the international community that there is a parliamentary majority," Andrija Mandic of the Democratic Front alliance, which wants closer ties with Serbia, told reporters in Podgorica.
