The Montenegrin Parliament replaced the President of the Assembly at an extraordinary session on Monday evening Aleks Bečić. Out of 81 deputies in the public vote, 43 were "for" and 36 "against". It's so rounded vote of no confidence in the Government of Zdravko Krivokapić.
"I am proud to be the first elected public official after the historic victory on August 30. We'll see each other in the court of the people, it cannot be avoided," said Bečić and assessed that it was about "political calculations". Bečić was elected as the Speaker of the Parliament on September 23, 2020.
MP of the Civic Movement URA Miloš Konatar, explaining the initiative to replace Bečić, pointed out that the new government must cooperate with everyone, including the opposition DPS, which "will not return to power". As he said, there must not be a deadlock between the Parliament and the future minority government.
No matter how much the previous vice-president of the government that was overthrown by Dritan Abazović tried to explain that the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) of the state president Milo Đukanović will not participate in the minority government that he envisioned under the leadership of Black and White, Đukanović did regain control over political events.
"I believe that thanks to us, thanks to the state-building opposition, Montenegro managed to resist Belgrade's offensive." After August 30, we went through a very aggressive offensive from Belgrade. Greater Serbian nationalism understood that the victory of their favorites opened the door for a new annexation of Montenegro, this time through the project 'Serbian world'. "That didn't happen because we had a state-responsible opposition led by the DPS," Đukanović said.
He also said that the DPS is ready to support the minority government of civil character, which leads Montenegro to Europe. Although Đukanović said that his DPS will not formally participate in it, the minority government of the coalition, which has only a few deputies in the Assembly, against the will of Đukanović, will neither be able to survive nor do anything.
The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, also spoke immediately and assessed Đukanović as "always strongly anti-Serbian".
"His fabrications, his brutal lies about the influence of Serbia, about the influence of the Serbs, about the fact that the Serbs are a malignant nation with a malignant influence together with the Russians, I will always fight against that," said Vučić, and that he will always protect the Serbian people and to defend Serbia. He added that he knows how much danger it carries with him, probably alluding to Prime Minister Ana Brnabić's allusions that Milo Đukanović ordered the criminal Radoj Zvicer to kill Vučić, because Vučić resolutely fights against crime led by Đukanović.
"Whenever you have a problem, it's Serbia's fault, it's Vučić's fault, it's the Serbian church's fault. Shame on you, that's enough," Vučić said on TV Happy, and that Montenegrins are Serbian "brothers, sisters and friends", but Milo, who wants to bully the Serbian people and thinks that no one should answer him, but if there is someone to answer him.
