During his remarks at the Digital Forensic Center’s presentation on its research into the People’s Republic of China (PRC)’s influence in Montenegro on June 22, 2022, Chargé d’affaires Chris Karber emphasized that countries which share a common vision of an open, secure & prosperous future must work together to respond to the challenges posed by the People’s Republic of China.
PRC companies are involved with some of Montenegro’s most important infrastructure projects, including the Bar-Boljare highway & the reconstruction of the Pljevlja thermal power plant. PRC companies are also interested in 5G network development, posing a threat to privacy and security.
