"Today, an overall agreement was reached between President Kostunica, Prime Minister-elect Djukanovic and Prime Minister Djindjic on the new Constitutional Charter for Serbia and Montenegro.
I am very pleased with the consensus reached after long - and sometimes difficult - talks. Today has been a good day and I want to thank the leaders for the constructive approach shown in overcoming the final hurdles in these complex constitutional negotiations.
The President of the Constitutional Commission and President of the Federal Parliament, Dragomir Micunovic, is ready to convene the Constitutional Commission on Tuesday in order to formalize the agreement.
