“Since Dusan Janjic said that Djukanovic had agreed at the Munich Forum to withdraw after these elections, this is the first time that the long-rumoured plan has been presented publicly. It is not particularly important whether Markovic or Djukanovic will be PM, because we are talking about the continuity of government and governing style. But at this stage of integration, we need discontinuity. If Markovic manages to get majority to form new government, I do not expect significant innovations in the manner of governing the state”, Raonic told CDM.
He thinks that Markovic’s biggest problem would be lack of a strong political figure beside him.
“And with the unstable majority, the accumulated problems and changed geo-strategic position, in which Montenegro will no longer be tolerated for certain things, this will certainly be a government with the greatest challenges so far”, Raonic said.
It is the third time that Djukanovic has withdrawn from politics.
After it was announced at the beginning of 2007 that the then Prime Minister Zeljko Sturanovic was suffering from lung cancer, he resigned on 31 January 2008 and Djukanovic replaced him.
He was officially re-elected as Prime Minister on 29 February 2008, although he earlier officially retired from politics.
After re-withdrawal in 2010 when Igor Luksic replaced him, he was re-elected prime minister in 2012.
