The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Montenegro will not withdraw its decision to declare Serbian Ambassador to Montenegro Vladimir Božović non grata.
As announced, both the Montenegrin ICJ and European Commissioner Oliver Varhelji welcome the decision of the Government of the Republic of Serbia to renounce the expulsion of the Montenegrin Ambassador to Serbia Tarzan Milosevic because, as they say, “there was no reason to that”.
– Ambassador Milosevic represents his country respecting the Republic of Serbia, without interfering in its internal affairs, with restraint towards the host country, even when Montenegro was rudely insulted and humiliated from various directions in Serbia, the symbols of the Montenegrin state were desecrated and therefore different international directions reacted – it says in the ad.
According to the ICJ, “unlike ours, the Serbian ambassador to Montenegro continuously interfered in the internal affairs of the country in which he works, with his interpretations of history questioning his independence, denying the Resolution of the Parliament of Montenegro on the illegitimate Parliament of Montenegro. Podgorica, which is known to have represented our history. “
– The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has repeatedly drawn your attention to this, warning that it is illegal and undiplomatic behavior towards the host country. Unfortunately, in vain and without understanding, it is written in the announcement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Montenegro, reports “Vijesti”.
It is also stated that for this reason, “this Government and this Ministry of Foreign Affairs will not withdraw their decision.”
In addition, it is added that the statement of the Prime Minister of Serbia, Ana Brnabić, is incomprehensible and that it actually says that Ambassador Božović actually transmitted the official positions of the Government of Serbia, which is a confirmation and continuation of a serious interference in the internal affairs of Montenegro.
– Unfortunately, this time, Commissioner Varhelji failed to at least exchange information and basic opinions on the substance of the matter with his partners and friends in Montenegro, with whom he spoke many times about more difficult and sensitive issues in the region. We believe that he, especially as someone who comes from Hungary, a country that has great sensitivity to issues of this nature, as a politician and civil servant, would better understand our relationship with the ambassador who continually interferes in internal affairs and violates the country’s national interests. host. in the statement.
The ICJ affirms that Montenegro is fully and truly committed to regional cooperation and good neighborly relations, “which is not only a pillar of European integration, as Commissioner Varhelji pointed out, but a key element of our foreign policy, which we come promoting for years in all bilateral and multilateral frameworks “. well known to our European partners. “
– Therefore, we are firmly convinced of the correctness of our decision, given that we cannot tolerate the humiliation of the State and the national dignity of Montenegro by the diplomatic representatives in our country – concluded the ICJ statement.
Two days ago, the outgoing Montenegrin government made the decision to expel the Serbian ambassador to Montenegro, Vladimir Bozovic, because he called on the Podgorica Assembly in 1918 the “liberation” and “free will” of the Montenegrin people.
After that, the Serbian response followed in the same way: the expulsion of the Montenegrin ambassador to Serbia, Tarzan Milosevic, but that decision was withdrawn yesterday.
