The U.S. Embassy has never had any delinquent taxes and always pays its taxes on schedule. The U.S. Embassy’s publication on the list of tax debtors was a technical error, the Ministry of Finance informed us. We are grateful for the Ministry of Finance’s apologies and error repair.
In addition, we regret that Vijesti released information concerning the Embassy’s inclusion on the debtor list before giving the Embassy the opportunity to confirm the facts. The Montenegrin public expects the media to continue producing journalism that meets the highest professional standards.
