He stated on TV Pink that the decision was made “at a complex political moment”, because certain political options of President Aleksandar Vučić accused him of cooperating with the President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović.

“Even when there are differences and when you do not agree on all the issues, there has always been respect for what he (Amfilohije) did in Montenegro … You saw how much (Vucic) was attacked, whatever he did. Imagine if he didn’t outside, what would they say to him. I think it was good for the respect of the late Metropolitan Amfilohije that President Vučić also spoke (which would be) and an additional political message, “says Stefanović.

Commenting on whether the death of Metropolitan Amfilohije will hinder the formation of the new Government of Montenegro, Stefanović affirms that it is an internal matter of that state and that Serbia will respect the decision of the people of Montenegro.

“(Our goal) is to work to strengthen mutual relations” and fight for the rights of the Serbian people. We want to strengthen the position of the Serbian people, we have invested three million euros in the Serbian House. “We try to show concern, we will continue to work in that way and protect the identity of the Serbs,” Stefanovic said.
