The Presidency of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) assessed that the outgoing parliamentary majority by blocking the Assembly and the Government creates "complete institutional paralysis and contributes to the deepening of the economic and social crisis", adding that the party will, and that they remain of the position that, as they state, "after the dismissal bad government that came on the wave of clero-nationalism and thereby served other people's interests, choose the democratic and cleanest solution."
The Presidency of the SDP says that the Government in its technical mandate functions dominantly as "a service to its members for the formation of a political party and the upcoming election campaign", while, as they state, "with an institutional blockade of work, it is doing serious damage to citizens and the economy, to our international reputation and internal stability. "
"Montenegro is the only country that did not adopt a single anti-crisis measure and thus helped its citizens and the economy in the conditions of a deep economic and social crisis caused predominantly by global events. The blockade of the Parliament of Montenegro by part of the current majority is unprecedented in democratic practice and together with the blockade of the executive power, aims to completely paralyze the functioning of the state and its institutions," the announcement reads.
The SDP Presidency says that "respecting the previous talks about a minority government that would unblock key institutions and the EU integration process, as well as prepare the environment for the elections, we remain of the opinion that it makes sense and can have support only on those principles, which were signed by 40 deputies , and supported by all pro-European political subjects."
"The new government must have a clear and unequivocal European and Euro-Atlantic orientation, bearing in mind that, especially in the current global political and security environment, there must not be any compromise with the strategic directions of state policy. The SDP will, as before, meet the solution current political and institutional crisis, to be guided exclusively by its political, value and program principles, which are well known to the Montenegrin public, and which are embedded in the foundations of the state's European and Euro-Atlantic policy," the announcement states.
They conclude that the complexity of the situation in which Montenegro finds itself and the need for a "responsible attitude towards citizens requires that precious time is no longer wasted and that a democratic solution be found, with the aim of unblocking the political system and state institutions."
