Everything that happens in Croatia sooner or later also happens in Montenegro, Serbian Defense Minister Aleksandar Vulin announced today.
The delegation of Serbia entered Montenegro in civilian clothes after not receiving permission from the Montenegrin authorities to do so in military uniforms
"In Croatia, too, they forbade our cadets to come in uniform, to pay respect to the victims of Jasenovac, and this is how we found out that in Montenegro, the Serbian uniform is, apparently, a threat, and the Serbian uniform is not allowed to be seen. I am not sure that any other army she wouldn't be able to enter Montenegro in uniform, so she wouldn't be able to appear here, but it seems that when she's Serbian, then she's a problem and everything that's Serbian is always a problem," said Vulin, who led the Ministry's delegation of Defense and the Serbian Army in Gornji Rovci.
Vulin added that they asked the competent ministry of Montenegro to give the appropriate permission to the Serbian delegation.
"We asked for it on Friday, and on Monday, around 14.30:21.30 p.m., we were told that everything was fine and that it would be as we requested. And then, around XNUMX:XNUMX p.m., they called our ambassador to tell him that everything was possible, but that uniform cannot. And when asked by our ambassador why, they gave the answer that the Ministry of Culture says so. Here, I am glad that we found out what the Ministry of Culture serves in Montenegro and we found out that, apparently, everything that is Serbian is a problem here bans the Serbian uniform," said Vulin.
He added that he believed that they hoped that because of this the delegation would not come, that they would abandon the trip, that they hoped that on this day the Minister of Defense of Serbia, with the delegation of the Ministry of Defense and the Serbian Army, would not be in this place.
"We wanted to come, to be with the Serbian people, to remind ourselves of our murdered friend and our murdered compatriot Pavle Bulatović, and that's why we came. And just so you know, General Milovanović, Colonel Mimović, Colonel Ranković and Colonel Zogović and you can dress them up however you want, they are Serbian generals and Serbian colonels, they are Serbian officers. So, if it meant that we didn't come, we came and we will always come to be with our people. I'm sorry that is the Serbian uniform so terrible in Montenegro and that it shouldn't be here. I expected that from Croatia, but I didn't expect something like that to happen in Montenegro. But everything that happens in Croatia eventually happens in Montenegro and I'm sorry that the Montenegrin government was not a little more original, but had to take advice from the Croats," concluded Vulin.
Vulin told the Tanjug agency that the speculations that the delegation of the Serbian Army was stopped at the border crossing with Montenegro are not correct.
He confirmed that the Montenegrin authorities did not allow the Serbian military delegation, headed by him, to enter Montenegro in uniform.
