FILE - In this March 15, 2017, file photo, Montenegrin sailors stand at the light frigate "Kotor" in the harbour of Bar, Montenegro. Montenegro is set to become NATO’s newest member after the Senate voted overwhelmingly March 28 to ratify the tiny Balkan nation’s entry into the alliance. Despite its size, Montenegro bears strategic importance. A former ally of Russia, the country is in the midst of a clash between the West and Moscow over influence in the Balkans. Montenegro will become the 29th member of the alliance and its admission gives NATO a contiguous border along the Adriatic coast. (AP Photo/Darko Vojinovic)
