He told TV Vijesti that there were two outstanding issues out of the seven conditions set by the opposition.
“The condition related to delaying local elections in Tivat has not been fulfilled and the requirement related to the public broadcaster is half fulfilled”, Lekic said.
Demos’s leader said that the agreement on creation conditions for fair elections might not be signed until the director of the public broadcaster TVCG, Radojka Rutovic, resigned.
“A change in the public broadcaster is needed, in order for it to become public broadcaster in the truest sense. It would be a victory of democratic Montenegro and an end of managing the public broadcaster by the ruling party and clientelistic circles around it”, Lekic said.
Asked whether the opposition made a concession and agreed with holding elections in Tivat on 17 April, Lekic said that the issue would remain outstanding until the agreement was signed.
“At this point, boycott is an opposition’s political measure against the act of scheduling the local elections for which no conditions are created”, he said.
According to Lekic, since time is slipping away, DPS should accept all opposition’s conditions as soon as possible.
“Under the agreement, elections should be held on 9 October. So, 9 April is the day six months before the elections and it is short-term, but there is a possibility to have an impact. Until this date, the agreement would have to be signed. If DPS concludes Rutovic is more important for them than this transition which is also their chance to get fair elections and if that is an extremely important thing for them, then let them take responsibility”, he said.
Asked whether the opposition already knows who will represent it in the government of electoral trust, Lekic said the names will be known after the adoption of the lex specialis in the Parliament.
“It is inappropriate to come out with some solutions now, because I do not know if everything will be implemented. As for me, I certainly will not be in that government”, he said.
Lekic did not want to comment on today’s inappropriate statement of MP for Positive Montenegro Azra Jasavic, who said, among other things, that PCG had opened the door to the opposition and her party to join the government of electoral trust.
Lekic said that this might happen, but only if PCG achieved an agreement with DPS and joined the new government as one of the ruling parties.
