New analysts, bloggers and contributors are found in Germany, Italy, USA, so it wouldn’t seem that only Russia is against Montenegrin entrance in NATO, and that not only current Montenegrin opposition is against current regime of Milo Djukanovic, it was reported by weekend edition of newspaper Novine.
A season of special articles about us was opend by a certain John Laughland, who concluded his analysis that “Milo wants in NATO to protect his criminal empire”. Mirko Vuletic was in charge of translation of something from German territory for newspaper Vijesti and he translated a post from the blog of Ulrich Ladurner, just a few hours after the German posted the text on his blog, and it was published on both web portal and in the newspaper, with headline “What is world media reporting about Montenegro”. It almost seems as if the text was originated in Montenegrin language first and then published on german, before publishing it as a translation in our media.
There were also names of Keneth raposa and Doug Bandow whose opinions were cited as opinions of Forbes magazine, but this was denied by both of them right away, along with the headline “Sanader took Croatia to NATO and ended in prison”, which was also falsely atributed to Forbes.
It seems that there’s an abundance of bloggers and contributors, but also of purchasers of such contributions.
