Protest of citizens in front of the RTCG building: We have the right to express ourselves in our language

A group of citizens of Podgorica gathered today on the plateau in front of the RTCG building to express a protest regarding, as they announced earlier, the attitude of the management of the Public Service towards the basic right of journalists to express themselves freely in their own language, which is guaranteed to them by the Constitution and laws of the state.
Their goal, as they said, is to peacefully express resistance to this attitude of the RTCG management.
The gathered citizens held up banners that read, among other things: "Resignation of Raonic"; "That one journalist is one of us"; "We demand a public apology"; "We have the right to express ourselves in our own language"; "Public interest must be the priority of public service"....
Liberal Party official Jelena Marković told Pobjeda that the goal of the protest is to provide support to a man whose health has worsened due to mobbing and the pressure he suffers at work.
Every citizen of this country should oppose such a lynching of a man because of his national commitment, who is perfect in his job. We do not allow any individual to be discriminated against, regardless of religion and nation, she said.
She sent a message to the General Director of the RTCG, Boris Raonic, saying that it was clear to her that he had sided with "the group that denies everything Montenegrin".
By treating Žarko Božović, he showed what kind of man he is. We don't want yellow ribbons to be put on our hands, we will do our best not to be put in the position they want to put us in - she said.
The General Director of the Public Service also addressed the gathering and said that they were invited to an interview if they wanted to.
The citizens responded with whistles and chants of "treason" and "resignation".
