That is to say, in just two months, he made a big turn in his policy: while in the campaign he criticized the annulment of the decisions of the Podgorica Assembly in 1918 on joining Serbia, he now claims that he insults the sovereignty of Montenegro!
This stems from Krivokapic’s statement in which he indirectly supported the decision of the former Montenegrin regime to expel Serbian ambassador Vladimir Bozovic, while also showing his own inconsistency in regards to the Podgorica Assembly in 1918, which was the reason of the unprecedented diplomatic scandal in Podgorica.
– Everyone has the right to an opinion, but if that declaration insults the independence and sovereignty of a country, of course it will take the appropriate measures regardless of who the ambassador is – said Krivokapic at the EU headquarters, commenting on the decision to declare Bozovic persona non grata.
However, the Montenegrin prime minister did not explain how Bozovic insulted the sovereignty and independence of the state at the foot of Lovcen.
This explanation is also awaited by one of the leaders of the Democratic Front, Milan Knezevic, who, for “Novosti”, says that there is no doubt for him that Krivokapic’s statement on the expulsion of Bozovic is a scandal:
– Such a statement represents the anti-Serbian policy demonstrated by the previous regime.
Whether it’s an unfortunate formulation or something else, historian Aleksandar Raković explains for “Novosti” as follows:
– Krivokapić is a man who obviously does not know how to formulate things precisely, he does not have that gift. A few weeks ago he spoke of the Podgorica Assembly in a positive light, and now he is giving a statement that should refer to the present, and is in fact interpreted as a reference to the past. Even if it refers to the present time, the statement is incorrect, because Božović did not deny the independence of Montenegro anywhere. Krivokapic does not deal at all with these political issues, Serbian identity issues. He declares himself Serbian, but to please someone, he will say that he is 100% Montenegrin. It shows a total inconsistency in attitudes, so one gets the impression that there is no attitude.
Raković warns that this can be very dangerous, because Krivokapić “confused the people not only in Montenegro, to the point of serving, but also the people of Serbia and Srpska, from where he received enormous support.” To make matters worse, adds Raković, Krivokapić unfortunately responded to that support after winning the elections with a series of bad statements about the Belgrade authorities and the president of Serbia.
THE NERVOUS GAME AND AROUND THE POLICE DIRECTOR IN PODGORICA
LAST AVAILABLE OPPOSITOR OF THE OPPOSITION
During the day, there was a real drama in Podgorica due to the intention of the Government of Montenegro to appoint Dragan Blagojevic as acting director of the Police Directorate, a man who ordered the arrest of the deputies of the Democratic Front when they defended sanctuaries in the Parliament on December 27 of last year. Religious Freedom Law.
After the government session, Krivokapić stated that, considering all the facts, they concluded that whoever threatened the deputies in the Assembly could not be the future interim director of the police. Eventually, Vesko Damjanović, former deputy director of the Border Police Sector, was appointed to that position.
The withdrawal of the appointment of Blagojevic was probably influenced by the strong reaction of the DF, from where they said that in that case they would not vote on any government proposal, except for the Law of Religious Freedom. Milan Knezevic of the DF said that if Blagojevic is appointed, the government should not exist.
On Thursday a new director of the National Security Agency was elected, who will be Dejan Vuksic.
The government also adopted changes to the Law on Religious Freedom, which contained provisions that directly affect the Serbian Orthodox Church and the shrines, that is, owned by the Serbian Orthodox Church in Montenegro.
