Radulović would sacrifice Montenegro’s dignity for good relations with Serbia

Đorđe Radulović

Judging by the statement of the newly-appointed head of Montenegrin diplomacy, Mr Đorđe Radulović, that Montenegro’s decision to expel Serbian Ambassador was hasty, relations with Belgrade are more important to him than Montenegro’s integrity.

Montenegrin Minister of Foreign Affairs, who has been employed in state administration for years, has conveyed a message that goof neighborly relations with Serbia are more important that protection of state interests.

Mr Radulović stated today that he “would have invited Serbian ambassador to talk to him if he had been head of the Ministry”, obviously neglecting the fact that Mr Božović has been invited for talks three times.

New minister seems to have forgotten (or maybe not) the fact that Mr Božović’s latest message about Podgorica Assembly was endorsed by Serbia OM, Ms Ana Brnabić, who said that “that is what the entire Serbia thinks”.

Abazović has different opinion

Opinion expressed by the newly-appointed minister opposes the statement made recently by vice-president of the Government, Mr Dritan Abazović, who said that he would allow anybody to undermine Montenegro.

“We will never allow that to happen. URA and I. That offends our state”, Mr Abazović said.

Unworthy of the function

For a DPS member, Mr Andrija Nikolić, Mr Radulović has proven to be unworthy of the function he performs.

“Glorification of Podgorica Assembly nowadays, that’s a call for the abolition of Montenegro”, Mr Nikolić said.

Not a hasty decision

Member of SDP presidency, Mr Mirko Stanić, says that Mr Radulović should know that the decision to expel Mr Božović actually came too late.

Minister is opposing himself

Liberal party states that Mr Radulović continues to tap in the dark, pretending to be unknowledgeable.

“If Mr Radulović read once again what he said, he would understand that he is actually opposing himself and no one else”, LP representatives said.

Humiliation for Montenegro

Social Democrats believe that the first official statement of Minister Radulović was scandalous at the very least. They say it’s a humiliation for Montenegro and its dignity, that he should be the first one to defend.

It is obvious, they say, that for Mr Radulović, 1918 is not an important year.

“But, to their regret, it is important to the majority, civil, European Montenegro of the 21st century, which will defend itself from the onslaught and humiliation that comes from the Government itself and its underage ministers. This example also shows how national or state interests will be defended, as Mr Abazović promised by shouting and waving his finger. It is obvious that these national interests will be defended, as both Abazović and the new ruling majority have already demonstrated: by keeping silent and squinting at the allegedly civil URA to humiliation and more than obvious anti-Montenegrin activities that we have witnessed almost every day for the past few months”.

It’s not possible to withdraw decision

On the other hand, part of the ruling parties, the Democratic People’s Party and the Socialist People’s Party, are asking Radulovic to annul the decision to expel Bozovic. However, Radulović made it clear today that it is not possible to withdraw the decision to expel Božović.
