State Secretary in the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports Damjan Ćulafić reacted to the statements of the deputy of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) Marta Šćepanović.
Šćepanović, among other things, stated that Ćulafić "attacked the dignity and honor of former school principals without any evidence".
In his response, Ćulafić stated that Šćepanović imputed to him that he "shamelessly attacked someone's honor and dignity" and that if he values anything in his life and work, he should hold "to his dignity and the dignity of others, believing that human rights are , as natural rights, the foundation not only of modern, but of all societies.
"As the State Secretary in the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports, submitting an oral response to the text called "interpellation", I said that many directors (but not all (sic!)) were replaced by decisions as individual legal acts (sic!) , which solutions are explained, and the dominant reason is that, "according to the assessment of the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports, they did their job negligently". And that's the end of my "shameless attack on the honor and dignity" of any of dismissed officials. Did I tell any of the dismissed directors that they were immoral? No! Did I tell any of them that they were dishonest? No. Did I offend the family of any of those people? No. Did I direct any kind of I didn't. So, all my "shameless" way of addressing, which I did "without blinking" and with "an enormous dose of hypocrisy", is reduced to the following half-sentence: the directors who "according to the assessment of the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and sports, negligently did their job". And that's the end of my "shameless attack on dignity and honor", as MP Šćepanović observes. the dignity of the dismissed directors", forms the qualifications for the newly appointed persons, and says that none of the heads of educational institutions appointed so far have "results and competence" for the tasks entrusted to them, and that their "party booklets" are a decisive incentive, and, of course, now already domesticated in the dictionary of the DPS, "Litija internship". Now, really, it is time for the reader to ask himself: who, in fact, is attacking whose honor and dignity?", said Ćulafić in his reaction
He adds that he thinks "it's time to put an end to parliamentary dealing with the legality of individual legal acts, and leave that work to the only competent body - the court".
"Nevertheless, I am of the opinion that Mrs. Šćepanović should know, even if she wants to enter into a polemic with me on similar topics, not shying away from throwing insults from her rich vocabulary, that I, first of all, have always been interested in the work of every state authority in to this country, as evidenced by the fact that I was always in opposition to the state government, in which DPS participated, and, secondly, that I spent the last year, as well as the last thirty-three years of my modest life, in Berane. is for Marta Šćepanović, and her DPS, Berane "miles away from Montenegro", I am not surprised, because such a relationship of the governing conjunctures in which the DPS participated has always been towards Berane, and Berane is very well known to Berane", it is stated, among other things in the reaction of Ćulafić.
