The presidency of the DNP unanimously decided to suspend further support to the government of Milojko Spajić until several demands are met, the party announced.
Among the numerous demands of Milan Knežević's party are: Adoption of the Resolution on Jasenovac by the end of June; The introduction of the Serbian language and the tricolor in the Constitution of Montenegro; Replacement of individual ministers; Adopting an agreement on dual citizenship with Serbia; Details about the Europe Now 2 program, as well as to sign an agreement by which the Government undertakes to fulfill all these requirements.
The DNP states that this decision was the result of the Government's vote for the Resolution on the Srebrenica genocide in New York two days ago, which they strongly condemned and assessed as "acting against national and state interests".
-Also, with this act, the Government of Montenegro has seriously undermined the coalition agreement, in which it is precisely written that the future executive power and coalition partners will refrain from all topics that go in the direction of deepening divisions. The violation of the Agreement is particularly reflected in the violation of relations with our closest Republic of Serbia and Republika Srpska. At the same time, relations with the so-called Kosovo and the Republic of Croatia, to the long-term detriment of the Serbian and Montenegrin people - Milan Knežević's party claims.
Due to all of the above, the Presidency of the DNP concluded that the Government of Milojko Spajić and the Collation Agreement they signed cannot survive in the current format.
- That is why we inform the public that the Presidency of the DNP unanimously made a decision to suspend further support to the Government of Milojko Spajić until the following demands are met:
- The prerequisite for the DNP to even consider the option of further support for the Government of Milojko Spajić is the adoption of the Resolution on the Genocide in Jasenovac by the end of June at the latest. In the event that the aforementioned Resolution, one of the initiators of which is Prime Minister Milojko Spajić, is not voted on, it would automatically mean the end of further negotiations and the denial of our support to the 44th Government. The DNP Presidency believes that Prime Minister Milojko Spajić is clear that failure to adopt the Resolution on the Genocide in Jasenovac would also mean the end of his Government in this parliamentary majority format;
If the Resolution on the Genocide in Jasenovac were to be passed, all with the aim of reaching an agreement on the further functioning of the parliamentary majority that will support the Government, it is necessary:
- Deliver concrete and time-standardized chapters on the implementation of the Europe Now 2 program, on the basis of which PES won the largest number of votes in the June 11 elections, and which DNP ultimately decided to support Milojko Spajić's government;
- Launch a constitutional initiative on standardizing the Serbian language as an official language;
- As part of the aforementioned initiative, define the norm on non-statutory criminal offenses in the field of organized crime and corruption, especially for those offenses related to decades of brutal looting of Montenegro and its citizens;
- To propose legal solutions and interstate agreements on dual citizenship with the Republic of Serbia;
- Standardize the tricolor as the national flag by the Constitution and the law;
- To dismiss a number of ministers for whom there are serious suspicions that they have connections with organized criminal groups and corrupt activities;
- In the annex to the existing coalition agreement, specify and commit to the fulfillment of the above-mentioned requirements;
The presidency of the Democratic People's Party informs the public that it will not support the reconstruction of the Government announced for the month of June. From this it follows that the DNP will not delegate either the Deputy Prime Minister or the Minister of Transport to the government of Milojko Spajić, who were established by the coalition agreement as belonging to the DNP. Establishing this position, the Presidency of the DNP - a concludes that with the entry of its representatives into this government, they would absolve Prime Minister Milojko Spajić for voting on the Resolution on Srebrenica and would eliminate any possibility of redefining the existing coalition agreement, which would represent a betrayal of the voters of our coalition, because it would turn out that we were always interested in ministerial and other positions in the government.
Deputies of the DNP - a will continue communication and cooperation with the parties of the parliamentary majority regarding legal proposals that they will assess to be in the interest of the citizens and the European path of Montenegro.
The DNP Presidency expects that if Prime Minister Milojko Spajić cares about our party's support, he will initiate a meeting with President Milan Knežević in the coming days to agree on the dynamics of changes to the Coalition Agreement and the implementation of the stated demands.
Aware of the fact that the exclusive and dominant responsibility lies not only on Prime Minister Spajić, but on all entities that support the 44th government, we expect the other signatories of the coalition agreement to get involved in solving the evident crisis caused by the Montenegrin government's vote for the Resolution on Srebrenica, they stated from DNP.
