The more slander and lies...

... No one - unfortunately - will be dear to us, as in that song about the last Yugoslav unifier. Instead, Montenegrin society will be further away from unification due to any changes - from political to environmental...

Friday, October 6 - What kind of headlines were there, as if Friday the XNUMXth arrived in our region seven days earlier...

Mockery at the Government session!

Another prank by Dritan!

An unforgettable scam!

And a dozen more, worded just as dramatically as if, far from it, another fundamental contract had been signed...

Or scheduled another life-threatening list...

Under all the titles, as if from yesterday to this afternoon, the same administrator was on duty on all pages, the same explanation:

- A person with a high school diploma was appointed to the board of directors...

- Scandalous!... almost all "commentators" were also unique...

And then the annoyed owner of a fb profile reminded them:

- Human beings in their right mind, before engaging in a public discussion, must also include - the brain - that's how it started...

And then cited the Law on Business Companies, which entered into force on July 3, 2020.

In which it is not written anywhere that a member of the board of directors must have a university degree...

I checked, and it wasn't a stretch...

When asked what conditions must be met for membership in that committee, Google answered me after ten seconds:

- Only one, that the candidate is capable of doing business!

And now what?

Nothing, it rattled a bit, let's start creating a new affair...

* * *

Saturday, October 7 - From what?... From the half-sentence of the President of Montenegro in which he guarantees "as commander in chief that there will be no place for party politics in the Army".

So, what's the problem?

It seems to me - in breaking the three-decade tradition that the Army is commanded by the ruling party.

And that the hunt for the President showed that "it doesn't snow to cover a mountain, but that every devil shows a trail"...

For what?

First, about tradition, although it is the least important in this case. It is not the first time that "commander-in-chief" has been added to the name and function of the President...

Does anyone else remember that, precisely on that basis, the late Momir Bulatović was accused in the early nineties as being most responsible for war crimes in Croatia...

And that, during the presidential mandate, Filip Vujanović is suspected of making some wrong decisions as - commander-in-chief...

Second, but not from a legal-political point of view, but from a linguistic point of view.

If there are commanders of brigades, battalions, corps, etc., then what to call the one who commands all of them and the entire army...

Commander-in-Chief? It is a bit cumbersome for everyday use, but it is also used by NATO, of which Montenegro is a part.

Supreme? Easier to pronounce, and more in the spirit of CSBH-language...

After all, the Constitution says that the Army of Montenegro is commanded by the President.

But he does it based on the decisions of the Defense and Security Council?

True, but the President performs all other tasks on the basis of someone's decisions and in agreement with someone.

Laws are promulgated based on the decision of the Assembly...

The representative is elected by the proposal of the strongest party...

Ambassadors are appointed after the Government's decision to nominate them...

The Constitution stipulates all that equally vaguely, so no one made a fuss...

What is the Law on the Army... So clear that, even after two readings, it can be concluded that no one is in command of the Montenegrin army...

And now what?

Nothing, let's go to the production of a new scandal for a day's entertainment of the idle crowd...

Sunday, October 8 - Well, a mob on social networks was not necessary for this one.

Milica Pejanović-Đurišić, president of the Atlantic Alliance, was enough. The meaning of whose existence, after Montenegro's entry into NATO, I still do not understand...

And I tried today, reading and listening to speeches from the 2BS forum. Whose focus, as announced, is the future and security of the Western Balkans, as well as the role and importance of NATO.

And what did I conclude?

Yes, the congratulation that Milica Pejanović-Đurišić sent immediately after the defeat of DPS on August 30, 2020 - is no longer valid.

- The citizens of Montenegro voted, expressed their preferences with dignity and responsibility. Democracy always wins - she said on Twitter at the time.

And now?

Now that victory of democracy has become a defeat.

- Montenegro has gone from being a leader in integration and a key partner of the Euro-Atlantic community in the region to becoming a problem - that's what she said at the 2BS forum.

It's true, it's a big problem when the most elite representatives of Montenegro from the era when it was the leader are first in custody and then indicted.

To begin with, the President of the Supreme Court with her son.

President of the Commercial Court with bankruptcy judges.

Heads of security services and persons connected with them.

Head of the State Cadastre.

The president of the richest municipality...

And finally?

Well, the end is not in sight. Because it is not a matter of "three years of dysfunctionality and instability of key state institutions".

Rather - three decades.

The "high degree of polarization, the irresponsible promotion of unfounded populist initiatives, the questioning of secularism and the civil concept of society" is not from yesterday, nor from that August three years ago.

But since 1989, when Pejanović-Đurišić publicly joined the "organizational committee" that directed the overthrow of the Montenegrin government. And countries, what's worse...

The answer to the question of who "threatened the trust of our Euro-Atlantic partners" can be found in the speeches of the domestic participants of 2BS...

There is no need to quote, what the guests at that forum about Montenegro have already heard is enough nonsense.

What impressions they will convey to their bosses in Brussels, I can only guess...

I'm sure of one thing - if I were in their place, I'd ask them to kick us out. Not only from NATO, but also from negotiations with the EU...

Monday, October 9 - After the production of political affairs, it was the turn of an environmental one.

The competition for renting out the mountain lodge "Sušica" has ended - with the withdrawal of the unsuspecting tenant.

Why?

Because of a chase that even former giants like KAP and Željezara from the era when they had five or six thousand defenders could not withstand. Let alone one small, newly formed Hoklica...

What does the factual description contain?

That a competition has been announced for the rental of a mountain lodge.

Legally, says (not only) my legal advisor...

But only one application came to that competition?

Yes, but the lessor did not prevent anyone from sending an offer...

Offered a rent of only 200 euros per month?

It's not just that, "Sušica" has neither electricity nor water, the installations are worn out, and the carpentry is not in a better condition either, it's easy to check by scouting...

Hoklica announced that it will invest 40.000 euros in their renovation and other repairs.

And after five years return home - to the state, that is. to the public enterprise National Parks...

So much for the specific competition and the defense of state property...

And now something in principle, about all mountain lodges in Montenegro...

All up to one should be leased!

And so that the state pays each individual tenant 200 euros per month. Least!

And to provide them with electricity cables, water pipes, carpentry and wooden furniture for free, due to the neglect of their homes...

And the tenant?

Well, it will be enough to welcome tired mountaineers. To provide them with basic foodstuffs. To organize their pleasant stay. And to help them in case of need...

If it all ends like this, what will we do with idle affair makers?

Just relax, they will find some reason for a new...

Tuesday, October 10 - And here it is, and on God's day by the end of the week: Serbian Patriarch Porfirije is coming to Podgorica!

Now I'm waiting for DPS, SD, SDP and LP: Occupying Church of Serbia...

And the comitis-patriotic guardians of the belvedere tradition: No pasaran...

And both warring wings of the CPC in unison: We don't give holy places...

I waited until midnight and - nothing!

* * *

Wednesday, October 11 - I am actively waiting, just like the creator of this phrase and a great admirer of the Serbian Orthodox Church, Filip Vujanović, before the referendum...

In vain, everyone is still silent...

* * *

Thursday, October 12 - Uh, I ran out of words for the end of the diary...

But, I don't regret it if the reasons for sudden silence are justified...

And if all the above-mentioned finally took notice of what the rest of Montenegro has known for decades...

That the patriarch of the SPC comes to his Metropolis and his other dioceses, like all his predecessors since Montenegro restored its statehood in 1945.

That the SPC ownership of approximately half of the 57 monasteries and 530 other temples was confirmed by 13 communist governments until 1990.

That a dozen DPS governments not only confirmed that ownership, but also donated the other half to the "Church of Serbia".

That of the Montenegrin monasteries registered with the SPC, the last one was - Ostrog...

Yes, glory and grace, that last state-church property transaction was carried out ten years before the signing of the Basic Agreement.

That the signatory of that contract on behalf of the state, even if he wanted to, had nothing to give to the Serbian Church...

About the Temple celebrating the jubilee just briefly.

A DPS government made a decision to invest seven million marks in the construction of the Church of the Serbian Orthodox Church in Podgorica.

The next one, fortunately, didn't have that much, so she managed to pay "only" one and a half million...

State enterprises competed to donate more to the Temple from their workers' salaries.

The first two places were taken by KAP and Pobjeda, but the amounts were never announced... Nevertheless, God did not look at them, they ended up in bankruptcy...

In all likelihood, Montenegro will also end up in bankruptcy if God does not give its inhabitants better minds...

Not only on social networks, but also in the voting booths...
