The government reshuffle was criticized by Montenegrin opposition parties, who said the entry of pro-Russian parties meant a government that would be run by Moscow and Belgrade.

" As a close ally and partner of Montenegro, the United States of America will continue to support and recognize the constructive actions of the parliament and government, pointing out activities that are contrary to Euro-Atlantic values and endanger tangible progress towards integration in the European Union ", says the statement of the American embassy
