The leader of the Movement for Changes (PzP), Nebojsa Medojevic, says in an interview for Pobjeda that if the 44th government is not reformist, there will be no government at all. He has added that URA’s insistence not to give the position of vice-president for the coordination of security services means that they are taking full responsibility for not forming the government.
“If URA insists that, in addition to the six ministries and monopolies in the security and defense and foreign affairs sectors, it also seeks this purely political position, then everyone will have to ask a logical question: ‘Why is Nebojsa Medojevic not acceptable’? PZP would understand another such blackmail as a clear message from URA that they do not want the dismantling of the Djukanovic regime and the reforms and that they have very concrete lucrative reasons for this – the continuation of smuggling and quick enrichment”, says Medojevic.
“For a better understanding of this chaos and powerlessness and constitutional disorder in which we find ourselves, it is necessary, in addition to locating the powerful people who formed the first post-Djukanovic government, to shed light on the motives for such a dangerous and anti-state and anti-democratic act”, he points out.
“Based on everything I found out and my level of understanding of processes and relations in Montenegro, the main motive of these powerful people was to prevent reforms that would lead to a systemic discontinuity with the sick regime of Djukanovic, all for the sake of taking control over lucrative criminal activities related to cigarette smuggling, drugs and money laundering”, Medojevic stresses.
“There is only one way out of such constitutional and fundamental crises – social consensus and fair and honest elections”, he says.
“The new government starts with certain problems related to the international factor, primarily the EU. This is precisely the line of fight against crime and corruption that is most effective for strengthening our international reputation and intensifying relations with the EU and NATO. The US is particularly interested in prosecuting drug cartels, and the UK in stopping cigarette smuggling and prosecuting key players”, Medojevic explains.
“The state of Montenegro must use its concrete actions against the mafia and show that there is no individual more powerful than it”, he points out.
