SOUNDBITE 1 (Montenegrin): DRITAN ABAZOVIC, Prime Minister of Montenegro
"I hope that in two years from now we will be able to witness the opening of a 16-km boulevard that will significantly improve the transport along this section. The Tivat-Jaz road really represents a great problem."

According to the government's press release, the reconstruction of the country's busiest and most congested road aims to turn the 16-km section into a modern boulevard-type connection between Tivat Airport and the municipalities of Kotor and Budva.

SOUNDBITE 2 (Chinese): FAN KUN, Chinese Ambassador to Montenegro
"Montenegro has a superior geographical location in the Balkans and has the potential to become a regional traffic hub. It can take advantage of the opportunity provided by the Belt and Road Initiative to vigorously improve its infrastructure and connectivity, thereby achieving rapid economic and social development."
