Marković: Montenegro is exposed to brutal attack, you don’t have to love Montenegro, but you must respect it

Montenegro’s Prime Minister, Mr Duško Marković, said today that “Montenegro is exposed to brutal attack due to mass gatherings that could have terrible consequences”. His message was clear – you don’t have to love Montenegro, but you must respect it.

“Our country is exposed to brutal attack that could have terrible and far-reaching health consequences. Orders of competent authorities are being defied. Several towns witnessed mass defiance. Everything we have achieved for three months has now been brought into question. There’s no reasonable explanation or justification for such behavior! There are fears that in ten days we could be in the situation we were in two months ago”, PM pointed out.

Rude political destruction

Mr Marković pointed out that we were witnessing rude political destruction of the state and its institution.

“Such actions endanger public health, under the cloak of religious rights and freedoms. In times of unprecedented economic and health crisis, when the state is doing its best to preserve what matters most – human health”, Mr Marković said.

Deal with Amfilohije honored

He said that Government respected religious rights.

“We have proven that with decision of the NCB. We respected everything which was agreed n direct conversation I had with Mr Amfilohije”, Mr Marković stressed.

PM reminded that many young people had cancelled their wedding ceremonies and other childbirth celebrations.

“And so many citizens buried their relatives without proper memorial service. Do these people have their needs and freedom just like those who claim to have religious rights?”, Mr Marković said.

The law applies equally to all

Mr Marković says that the country has put all its potential and institutions into the function of citizens’ protection, their material safety and civil dignity.

“Today and every other day, the law applies equally to all. We are obliged to serve this country. That’s the duty of every state authority and every institution. That’s constitutional duty of this Government and we are going to discharge it”, PM pointed out.

May long live Montenegro! – Mr Marković concluded.
