Montenegrin authorities don’t have a list of persons from Serbia who are prohibited to enter our country due to offensive and inappropriate statements about our country, said the Prime Minister, Duško Marković.
“We will make such list if we have valid reasons to do so and it won’t be hidden from the public. Except from those persons who belong to crime milieu and who are not welcome here, no person is undesirable”, said Marković.
However, he says that Montenegro is ready to defend its dignity and by using democratic means.
“Vikend Novine” published that the list of undesirable persons from Serbia was prepared and that it included the Chief of the Serbian Orthodox Church because of “mire statements about Montenegro” and that he will be prohibited to enter our country. However, he came to Montenegro today and said he was glad to be here.
“I got an invitation from the Metropolitan bishop to be their guest but I had to refuse since I already had scheduled visit to Žabljak. I expected Irinej to withdraw his statement and apologize. I believe however that Irinej understood that messages of peace and coexistence in Montenegro are welcome”, said Marković.
Marković denies saying that anybody who fails to stand up during the playing of our anthem has to be reported and punished.
“I never invited citizens to spy for the state those who disrespect symbols. The state is brave enough to identify those who disrespect symbols and we don’t need the cooperation of citizens for that”, pointed out Marković.
