Russia approves import of dairy products to Customs Union

Yes Russia has imposed sanctions on Montenegro but I can see why as Montenegro has nothing to export.
Macedonia has had to impose sanctions on Russia, but Bosnia has not as RS will not hear of any sanctions against Moscow.

If Russia imposed sanctions on MNE then there would be no one in Budva during summer.

Something interests me, Montenegro imposed sanctions on Russia but Russia did not impose counter measures on Montenegro.... also what about Macedonia and Bosnia? Did they impose sanctions?

What will be the result? Cheap domestic dairy product being exported to Russia, while Serbian customers will gladly have to buy more expensive ones coming from the EU. Or how should Serbia be able to suddenly boost its production? I never understood why there is even imported milk available in Serbia.

Boosting production is a must then. I agree on importing food in general to Serbia. It makes no sense because everything can already grow in Serbia. But that doesn't mean that you do not at least try to take advantage of the open business available with Russia due to the sanctions. Makes very simple economic sense to go for it.

So far Russian sanctions are on produce from Montenegro not on travel.

Russians are much disappointed in Montenegro. Since 2013 we have a trend when Russians sell their property here and leave the country. Most often mentioned reasons are bureaucracy and mob. People buy real estate and then for years they have struggle for their documents of property. Sometimes they have to pay twice. Also Russians are disappointed with the hypocrisy politics of the state. De facto people remain friendly while the state demonstrates it hostility to Russia wherever they can.

I wouldnt buy a toothpick in Montenegro let alone property as I have heard stories just like you have described. Its much like Kosovo where there is very little law and this is a place that is negotiating for EU entry – amazing.
However, the west that keeps on telling us all about their standards on everything on this earth maintains places like Montenegro where they have a President for life, Milo Jukanovic, and have they have gall to critise someone else. Like Kosovo they keep and maintain criminals and thieves.

Tainted milk sent from Serbia to Russia will place Serbia in no man's land.
