A possible alliance with the Socialist People's Party (SNP) in Berane would mean an alliance with the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS), said Deputy and Vice President of Democratic Montenegro Vladimir Martinović.
Martinović pointed out that the SNP at the state level showed its willingness to go with the DPS.
"Accordingly, if someone thinks that a coalition should be made with them at the local level, then we can bring it to the level of negotiating with the DPS. It is exactly the same whether you will negotiate with the DPS or the SNP in Berane. Everything "It is clear - the new constituent of those parties at the state level, which is being announced, suffered a defeat in Berane. They cannot form a majority together, so I don't know what they have to celebrate," said Martinović in an interview with RTV Nikšić.
If the Socialist People's Party were to abandon the concept of a minority government at the state level, it is up to the party bodies to decide after everything whether they are in favor of the SNP participating in government, even though there is no need for that, he explains.
Commenting on the allegations of the SNP that, if they are not part of the government in Berane, they will overthrow the government in the municipalities where it depends on them, Martinović says:
"Wherever they think they should overthrow the government, where that government depends on them, let them do it freely and good luck. They will bear political responsibility for it before the citizens of Montenegro, and they can neither blackmail nor intimidate us."
