The Liberal Party (LP) strongly condemns and rejects the media frenzy that culminated in attacks on Montenegrin ambassadors Nebojša Kaluđerović, Željko Perović and Miodrag Vlahović, the party announced today.
"They experienced a public lynching, which their colleague Mirna Nikčević, now a former employee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has been experiencing for months, all together because of their personal actions and private actions, guaranteed by the Constitution to everyone, including diplomats. The aggressiveness and scale of these attacks go beyond every measure of decency and exceeds the importance of the expressed views, turning into a mass persecution and personal confrontation in which they try to disparage the Montenegrin people, history and tradition, but also freedom of speech and privacy of correspondence and personal actions," the LP statement said.
From that party, they added that it is known that mass psychology, as a very dangerous phenomenon, easily turns into mass persecutions for which a scapegoat is needed.
"It seems that in the latest reckoning with the Montenegrin identity, a new victim has been found in the person of Mirna Nikčević and the three ambassadors of Montenegro. What they are condemned for, the ones mentioned now survive in a much more difficult way, without any protection and without sanction for the instigators. Especially worries that the Greater Serbian nationalist organizations and centers close to clerical and militant circles are permanently provoking, attacking, humiliating, falsifying and planting various disinformation and manipulations in the Montenegrin public opinion. society, multiculturalism, the unity of Montenegrin peoples and Montenegrin statehood and sovereignty. Institutions and the highest state officials, instead of dealing with marginal private comments and private actions of former and current Montenegrin diplomats, must finally pay attention to these very dangerous phenomena, so that all together let's not wake up again in some terrible and fateful 1918, according to Montenegro. or in 1989," LP said.
Ambassadors Miodrag Vlahović, Nebojša Kaluđerović and Željko Perović decided to pay a fine of 600 euros imposed on Nikčević by the Podgorica Misdemeanor Court for hate speech.
The misdemeanor court fined Nikčević 600 euros because on her Facebook profile she insulted believers who gathered in front of the Cathedral of Christ's Resurrection in Podgorica on Trinity Day. After Nikčević said that three ambassadors had paid her fine, Montenegrin diplomats issued a public statement in which, among other things, they stated that those who "premeditatedly, deliberately, orchestrated and organized attacks on Montenegro" should not be punished.
