 The Ministry of Finance under Igor Lukšić issued ten-year bonds at a value of 200 million Euros at a fixed interest rate of 7.85 percent.Rumours appeared many times that the Ministry of Finance was also seeking an agreement with the International Monetary Fund, but government officials, including the minister himself, always talked about it as a possible opportunity but as something that should be avoided if the possibility remains, and with successful issuing of Eurobonds, the government was able to avoid this possibility.Igor Lukšić was long seen as the designated successor of former Prime Minister and one-time Head of State Milo Đukanović.
