The terror of Valerija Saveljić has haunted the Montenegrin public for years with its projections of the business of the largest Montenegrin brand company "13. July Plantation".

Valerija Saveljić was appointed to the position of financial director by executive director Verica Maraš in April 2008 and held that position until September 2015.

Bringing the company into more serious financial problems during her term of office, which manifested itself through an increase in indebtedness with banks of over 10 million euros, receiving large salaries at the level of the company, as well as enormous monetary income that she personally earned during her term of office in a period of seven years And for four months, in the value of around 600 thousand euros, significant indebtedness to suppliers that increased in millions, a significant increase in tax debt and obligations to the state, significant increases in doubtful and disputed claims in millions, may have been the motive for joining one of the political the party that, as she repeatedly pointed out, would protect her. Based on the information she gave, the public got the impression that the URA political party was her only party and her choice to fight for injustice.

However, as we learn from the Montenegrin media these days, Valerija Saveljić in September 2015 filled out and signed the application form of the Democratic Party of Socialists.

Valerija Saveljić is, by all accounts, a high-flying party cadre. Keep the membership card that is current. It belongs to the forerunners of political conversion characteristic of the recent political history of Montenegro, because when you have the right membership card, the sky is the limit.

Whether the motive for joining DPS was due to bad results and saving from dismissal from the position of financial director, or perhaps with the pretension to take the position of executive director of Plantaž with the support of informal power centers in DPS, or something else - for now it remains to be seen just a guess. At the same time, it remains unclear why Mrs. Saveljić persistently hid from the public all these years that she was a member of DPS, and only since 2015. Certainly, her later affiliation with the URA movement, in front of which she disavowed the Montenegrin public, as well as the whistleblower status granted to her by the ASK, may be her great protection, which she dreamed of for a long time and which she sought from the DPS in 2015.

After the decision of the ASK to return Ms. Saveljić to the company, which in a short number of years she managed to bring to a very problematic financial position, it will certainly not please the employees of Plantaže. For Plantaže, a person like Valerija Saveljić, who was more than unsuccessful in her work, is a great warning for the owners who should not allow this if they want to protect the biggest brand of Montenegro and the leading agricultural company, in otherwise very difficult and crisis times economy of Montenegro.
