Our country is burning

Milo Đukanović and Zdravko Krivokapić could come together in front of the Cetinje monastery, to be greeted there by all the bishops with all the honey and gifts, and then all in front of their supporters, and in the front rows...

It's a transformation, I don't want to overstate it, but there's every chance that the country will go to waste before it gets angry because of the enthronement in Cetinje. It is burning from the Tara canyon to Mrkojević, all four nahijas and other dioceses are under fire, and not even seven hectares of forest will survive on the seven hills, let alone medicinal or endemic plants.

It is not realistic to trust the security services, the former government organized them in such a way that it was easier to initiate the intervention of NATO troops than theirs. Tortured firefighting units barely manage to reach the settlement in time, and it is not even realistic to expect that six hundred firefighters save the entire country.

Six hundred and odd thousand owners of that country sit at home, when a flame appears on the screen, they realize that it is not nearby and continue to clarify politics on social networks or in the neighborhood. Those who believe in the church live for the enthronement of a new metropolitan, and the party followers of the old regime for the return to power in full force, not believing that life without Milo Đukanović is even possible.

He doesn't believe in that, everything is an opportunity, not even a poor media service.

Good afternoon, dear viewers, this is the first Dnevnik after the inauguration of the new administration, let's move on to the news of the day.

The first information, about the spread of the fire-21 epidemic, is certainly not of interest to you, so let's move on right away. Renowned analyst Dušan Janjić is our guest today for the 1389th time, but before that news from our house.

Žarko Mirković resigned from membership in the RTCG Council. In a short letter, he said only that he was leaving "for personal reasons", without specifying any.

Of course he didn't mention them, there was no need. That his resignation would follow quickly was evident three days earlier, during interviews with candidates for the position of CEO.

After Mirković's questions, which I can describe as serious, substantive and murderous, and especially after Boris Raonic's indescribable answers, it was clear that the two of them not only could not be part of the same service, but also of the same world.

The reasons that motivated the remaining eight members to remain in the Council have not yet been announced. One of them could be guessed from Dušan Janjić's lengthy report - Montenegro cannot survive without Milo Đukanović.

- The ruling coalition does not have the capacity, firstly in the personnel composition of the leadership, secondly - the differences are huge between the politics of Ura, the Democrats and the Democratic Front - the favorite analyst of Đukanović tried to feign objectivity.

What kind of leadership the two of them would like is clear without much effort. Unfortunately for them, that party single-mindedness was defeated in the elections. But, unfortunately for Montenegro, it still manages the most important institutions, including the poor media service. True only in terms of height, because I have a feeling that DF will take over that job in terms of depth.

- The opposition is quite strong, but tolerant to give the new majority a chance - not even an ordinary lie forced the host to interrupt the guest with at least some sub-question.

Such a chance was given to the new majority that it is not possible to change any law according to which the old majority is immutable. The new government can't even do anything to the formally dismissed old police chief.

Calling the police officers whom he was in charge until yesterday to cancel their loyalty to the new administration is called endangering the security of the state, but he is still at large.

And when an even older President scolds journalist Milka Tadić-Mijović for "working against the state", and some thug feels called to punish her on the street for that - then that is not called "tolerance of the opposition". but incitement to commit a crime...

I have not been surprised by TVCG analysts or journalists for a long time, I perfectly understand what personal reasons motivate them to present the past thirty years as idyllic. I am only surprised that there are still those who believe them.

- Negotiations can be set back two years - threatened an analyst from a neighboring country with an empty rifle, which was set back three full decades.

There have been no negotiations with Montenegro for four or five years, since serious diplomats finally realized that they were dealing with fraudsters and endemic corruption that is measured in billions.

It will be like this until the new government prevents fish bigger than Svetozar Marović from settling in the countries of the European Union, as he managed to do in Serbia...

How that summoning of the spirits of the old government ended - I don't know, I changed the channel and avoided TVCG until the day before yesterday.

I wanted to check if my hometown was burning, but I didn't succeed because already at the beginning of the first Dnevnik, I started to see the inauguration lagum in the capital.

When the invitations sent by the Serbian patriarch to Montenegrin officials and leaders of the ruling but not opposition parties become breaking news on national television - then it smells like provoking opponents of the enthronement of the metropolitan in Cetinje.

And when you read the detailed description of the place and time of the patriarch's movement through the capital, it smells like an open invitation to conflicts in Podgorica as well...

P.S. While I was coming up with the end of the text, I received a message from a regular reader from the capital. He says that if the Katun nahija continues to burn at this rate, the risk of conflict will be lower due to the smaller number of participants and opponents of the celebration in Cetinje. It is possible, but trusting in the fire is also very risky, that's why I am running for a less dangerous solution: that President Milo Đukanović and Prime Minister Zdravko Krivokapić come together in front of the Cetinje Monastery, that all the bishops meet them there with all the honey and gifts, and then everyone in front of their supporters, and in the first rows...
