Montenegro after the elections: Ministers of hope strike back

The leaders of the Europe Movement now represent a generation of new, desirable personalities on the political scene for whom politics is not life itself. And fundamentally, they received largely blank support, because the others spent theirs heavily. The fact is, however, that hopeful support is lost the fastest

End of an era and additional questions

After three decades, Milo Đukanović lost the last lever of power. However, the support that Jakov Milatović received from almost all constituents of the loose and often conflicted parliamentary majority will not exist after the presidential elections. It will be an open conflict of allies with often diametrically opposed political, ideological and all other interests. Already in these days, everyone will return to seriously questioning how much the final victory over Đukanović harmed everyone individually.

Presidential elections in Montenegro: Was Milo defeated or did Jakov win?

Equating the importance of the past presidential elections with the 2006 referendum, when more than 55 percent of citizens supported the independence of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović certainly did not expect that 60 percent of Montenegrins would show yesterday that they do not share the same vision of an independent state with the previous president. More precisely, that they do not accept to continue to be the subject of manipulations and a means of division. Throwing Jakov Milatović, who joined politics only two years ago, into the foreground, the citizens did not only punish Đukanović, but also all those who have been shaping the Montenegrin political environment for decades.

Resources in your pocket and riding the wave of discontent

The results of the first round confront Đukanović with a dramatic fact for him - that the trend of falling trust in the Democratic Party of Socialists continues, but also that his popularity is lower than that enjoyed by the party he leads. The success of Jakov Milatović and the continued growth of the popularity of the Europe Movement cannot now be interpreted only by what analysts call "strategic overflow of votes".
