10:36 Lawyer Đorđe Bulatović said that Bulatović's testimony was true.
10:35 Lawyer Nikola Medojević said that Bulatović is a credible witness and that the indictment has been reduced to factual and legal groundlessness and is unsustainable.
10:31 Jovanović said that Bulatović comprehensively "destroys" what is the basis of the indictment, which is the political persecution of DF.
10:29 Jovanović said that this is the trial of a political organization.

10:23 Lawyer Miroje Jovanović said that Bulatović was an eyewitness to the event.
"Bulatović knows the facts because he saw them. Since he is an eyewitness, he told us that this is a case of government interference. He is an eyewitness of all DF activities and election activities. He made a detailed statement about political speeches at DF rallies. The witness knew what the way the speeches were prepared and what kind of messages should have been sent," said Jovanović.
10:21 Krpović said that Bulatović's testimony was significant and that he helped establish that DF did not anticipate any public gathering.
10:20 The trial continued.
10:04 The accused Bratislav Dikić asked for a break because he is not feeling well and the judge allowed it.
10:01 Krpović said that Bulatović explained that Milo Đukanović was not waiting for the results of the elections in the Assembly of Montenegro, and this could be determined through a selfie, i.e. Đukanović was in the premises of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS).
9:58 Lawyer Jugoslav Krpović said that Bulatović explained that his and Milan Knežević's trip to Russia was within the scope of parliamentary functions and that they were going to make an agreement with the Rodina party, not to make a plan to overthrow Milo Đukanović and the regime.
9:55 Radosavljević said that Bulatović said that if Andrija Mandić and Milan Knežević were to blame, then it was also to blame.
"The witness pointed out the absurdity of the procedure," said Radosavljević.
9:32 Lawyer Dušan Radosavljević said that he is making the remark because he believes that the prosecution conducted the interrogation in a wrong way.
"The prosecution questioned this witness as a defendant, which is wrong and against the law," said Radosavljević.
9:25 The prosecutor said that Bulatović could not explain who introduced him to Anani Nikić, and that he did not know that Nikić previously worked for Rajko Bobot as a driver.
"The witness states that Nikić worked as a translator for DF, although he never had the opportunity to witness the act of translation. In relation to Šaviv, the witness was decisive and clear and stated that it was Knežević who scheduled the meeting in Russia, but he does not explain why it was decided for the meeting to be held right there. He states that Šaviv came with his team of people, but he does not know who those people are. The witness stated that two houses were rented for the needs of the DF, one for the party headquarters and the other for Šaviv's associates. The witness did not it is known who and how much paid for those houses. With regard to what happened on the day of the parliamentary elections, the witness learns that he received information about the deprivation of liberty of certain persons from Andrija Mandić, but he does not remember what exactly Mandić told him. The witness did not explain why DF did not held a press conference at the time. He said that he spent the day before the elections entirely with Milan Knežević, in the company of Dušan Knežević, which is why we will propose that that person be called as a witness in order to check the accuracy of the statement,'' said Čađenović.
9:18 Prosecutor Saša Čađenović said that the witness Bulatović spoke mostly truthfully and accurately and that when he did not answer questions, he did so deliberately in order to protect Mandić and Knežević "who found themselves in a difficult life situation".
9:12 Explaining the conflict he had with Šaviv, Bulatović said that he had a "conflict of opinions" with him.
"I said that I was in talks with Šaviv, but not in the house, in mid-July when he presented his view of the "Let Montenegro work" campaign. I thought that it was best for the DF that the elections were also a campaign against NATO. He advocated that we should emphasize social and economic topics".
9:09 Answering Judge Mugoša's question about the work done by Victor Emanuel Richardson, one of Aron Shaviv's advisers, Bulatović said that he did not know in detail what he did.
"He was in charge of field work, that the first secure voice recording software. It was a complex organization in the DF. There was no special translator for Richardson. Someone was translating, there were people who knew both English and German. We had reports about field work via tablet," said Bulatović.

Democratic Front (DF) official Predrag Bulatović is expected to finish the testimony.
