A total of 41 parliamentary majority MPs have submitted signatures for the candidacy of Miodrag Lekic for the future prime minister-designate for the composition of the new government, one of the DF leaders, Andrija Mandic, has stated in a letter addressed to President Milo Djukanovic.
Recently, he recalls, the Parliament of Montenegro adopted amendments to the Law on the President, which entered into force. Therefore, they are part of the legal system, which created the conditions for the President of Montenegro to start repeated consultations to determine the prime minister-designate for the composition of the new Government.
“We invite you, in accordance with this legal solution, but, above all, in accordance with the Constitution of Montenegro, to invite the representatives of the political parties that make up the parliamentary majority to a discussion, that is, consultations. As is known to the general public, there is an undisputed parliamentary majority of 41 MPs in the Parliament. Also, it is a fact that Mr. Miodrag Lekic has the support to be the prime minister-designate for the composition of the new Government of Montenegro”, Mandic has stated.
As he has pointed out, the Parliament, apart from the duty to elect a new government, also has the obligation to put the institutions that are blocked into full operation.
Since the deadline for holding the presidential elections is in the spring, it is necessary to reach an agreement on the minimum electoral conditions, which would establish trust between all participants in the electoral process, Mandic stresses.
Therefore, he points out, they are open to discussions on all the mentioned issues, including the problem that arose in the process of constituting new local authorities in Podgorica and Pljevlja.
