Montenegro can get out of the vicious cycle of division only if civil forces form a single bloc, and the Metropolitanate of Montenegrin Littoral distances itself from the political structures that brought it to the situation in which it found itself in recent days, according to the Civic Alliance (GA).
The president of that non-governmental organization, Boris Raonic, told the MINA agency that the detention of MCP priests and their detention until the last minute allowed by the law was the ideal trigger for the processes, which will last until the election.
He said that this vicious circle can only be exited if the civil forces, which inherit NOB, want integration and strengthening of institutions and development of society, form a single block.
"And the MCP unequivocally distanced itself from the political structures that brought it to the situation in which it found itself in recent days by calling for gatherings in Nikšić and then leaving the responsibility to them, while creating the image of the Church which, which is not true, is the Church of only one nation" , said Raonic.
He said that he hopes to strengthen non-passionate, left-wing options within the unionist electorate.
"Primarily in the form of an option brought together by Vladimir Joković and Aleksandar Damjanović, who would be a desirable factor for the formation of a government with all political options," Raonic assessed.
He said that for everything that is happening in Montenegro, the cause cannot be found in the Law on Freedom of Religion, but is a reflection of dissatisfaction with frozen reforms and the disordered state of society, and that then by nature citizens go for right-wing options.
Raonic assessed that the scene is a struggle over the division of potential voter support, and that radicalization corresponds to the strong motives of the national political platform.
"It moves the entire society to the right, which has already become a standard in the countries of the former SFRY, and in Montenegro we hoped that this scenario would not happen," said Raonic.
He believes that it is obvious that the economic and institutional crisis and leadership fatigue have pushed these processes forward and that now a serious effort is needed to stop it.
"It is unfortunate that the political focus on issues of integration, economy, development, culture, sports, independence of institutions, education is disappearing. After three decades of lessons about the price of such politics, we are now focusing on ethnopolitics," said Raonic.
He assessed that it is even more regrettable that citizens do not demand these policies, but instead focus their justified dissatisfaction on everything that happened in the past few days.
"It is particularly worrying that even the European Union is no longer a motive and a motivator, so this requires a quick reaction, because as a society, the idea of Europe, its values and rules, now, even when there is an obvious crisis in it, is the most necessary for us," Raonic said. .
He said that everything that is happening in Montenegro is not accidental, but the result of a tacit consensus.
"Where on one side we have power structures that, after the collapse of the Dukljan myth, are now being pushed by the Greens, who are encouraged by the ever-present Great Serbian, which can grow enough to keep the majority on the other side in fear and thus homogenize around the structures that block the transition," concluded Raonic .
