Serbian Defense Minister Nebojsa Stefanovic said tonight that Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic’s decision to go to Podgorica for the funeral of the Metropolitan of Montenegro and the Amfilohije coastline was not easy because it came at a complex political moment, accompanied by several challenges. .
Stefanovic, who as a member of the high government delegation attended the funeral of Metropolitan Amfilohije, said that Vucic, as he himself put it, wanted to pay tribute to someone who did a lot for the Serbian people and express respect in his own name and in the name from Serbia.
“The attacks against him began with the electoral campaign and the internal circumstances in Montenegro. Some accuse him of cooperating with the government of Milo Djukanovic, on the other hand they accuse him of leading the processions ‘that are destroying Milo Djukanovic,'” said Stefanovic to TV Pink.
He added that the Serbian president also received attacks from those who said he was trying to create a “political point for himself.”
“And he is being attacked by those who appear to speak at various funerals and who seem to take cheap political points. If he had not left, they would have said that he is not interested in Serbia-Montenegro relations and that he is not interested in helping his people. from Montenegro, “said Stefanović.
According to him, the position of President of Serbia was recognized by Metropolitan Amfilohije himself during the last conversation with Vučić.
“In the last conversation they had, Amfilohije said that he only now fully understands how difficult it is to be president of Serbia and the challenges he faces,” Stefanović said.
He also assessed that it would be good for Vučić to speak at the metropolitan’s funeral, but that the presence itself is very important and that it sends a strong message to the Serbian people in Montenegro.
