Representatives of the student group "Where Tomorrow?" submitted demands to Prime Minister Milojko Spajić and stressed that they expect him to state his views on them at a press conference by February 1.

They said that they will not give up until they are adopted, RTCG reports.

The demands are the resignation of the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Vice President for Security, a more up-to-date approach to the issue of weapons possession, reform of the system of functioning of police structures, the return of civic education as a mandatory subject in schools and improvement of the institutional approach to mental health care.

The students submitted demands, and they also demand that the Prime Minister inform the public about what has been done since January 1, 2025, in order to improve the safety of all citizens.

“We expect him to consider our demands, to adopt them first of all and to publish them in the public press by February 1st... We hope that he will do so because we want him to put the welfare of all citizens ahead of all personal interests, but if that does not happen, we are ready to push this to the end until that happens, until these demands are met,” said one of the organizers of the protest, Dalida Hodžić, reported the RTCG Portal.

Her colleague Danilo Guberinić says that he will not present any new demands..

“Because we believe that these five are currently quite sufficient on our part, as students, and that this would prevent future, God forbid, crimes,” he said.

A new protest is scheduled for Saturday, January 25th, when the walk will be to the Parliament because, as they say, the demands must first reach the Parliament in order to be voted on in the Parliament.

The students point out that they have not received an invitation from their colleagues from Serbia to participate in the general strike.

“Of course, we can organize something similar here. "We would certainly organize it, but we believe that it is currently quite difficult to organize such a strike in Montenegro. Of course, our colleagues from Serbia have our full support in that regard," says Hodžić.
