"If it wasn't for this policy, we wouldn't have crossed paths with Milosevic's policy in 1997. If it weren't for this policy, there probably would have been a war here. Because if Andrija Mandić had been there, don't have any doubt that we would have been bombed, that we would have had a war here. When I say Andrija Mandić, I'm not speaking in terms of personality, but in terms of that policy," said DPS leader Danijel Živković.

In the program "Nachisto" on TV Vijesti, Živković said that this media company worked together with the Church and helped to replace the DPS government in 2020.

"So, you helped them believing that you would remain in those positions of power, so with the support of this GP URA, but in fact essentially the church used you to be in power today," said the DPS leader

"I have to remind you that Miško Perović and Željko Ivanović met with Gojko Perović as the beautiful face of the church, that he was presented as the beautiful face of the church right on the portal and in Vijesti, just so that there would be a change of government in Montenegro. Whether it is legitimate or not, that is another question, but there was a change of government on August 30 and you yourself claim that these citizens were deceived and that part of the vote did not go to the side of that nationalism, we today we would not have this government here," said the DPS president.

Živković did not rule out the holding of extraordinary parliamentary elections and pointed out that he expects a change of government, adding that DPS will soon start preparations for the election race.

He also said that it is a real curiosity that someone who spent 30 years in positions of power after five years in opposition "under such a barrage of fire from the entire state and security apparatus and every other apparatus and pressure from outside and from this government, maintains the rating that we have today".

Responding to the question, Živković said that he does not believe that former DPS leader Milo Đukanović "did something that would bring him into the zone of criminal responsibility", stating that Đukanović is available to all authorities.

"As we can see, he did not go to Dubai or any other country, as our political competition has claimed for 30 years", he added.

Speaking about the work of the Inquiry Committee, Živković said that it was not in their interest not to participate in the work of the committee, but that the idea of ​​forming that body originated in the BIA, and that Milan Knežević is challenging independent Montenegro by emphasizing that it was founded on crime.

"It is not my political observation, but Milan Knežević's observation. This political observation was made by Ivan Vuković, while he was, for some reason, at the BIA headquarters, and was detained there during one of the protests against Aleksandar Vučić, or rather his dictatorship in Belgrade, and heard, among other things, from members of the Security and Information Agency identical theses that Milan Knežević had stated from the very beginning," said Živković.
