Abstract
Based on the results of a referendum, Montenegro declared independence on 3 June 2006 and, thus, ended the union of Serbia and Montenegro which had existed since 1992. In the referendum on 21 May 2006, 55% of the electorate voted in favour of independence from Serbia. By now Montenegro has been internationally recognised as a sovereign state including a formal recognition by Serbia on 15 June 2006.
