Dozens of citizens protested for hours in front of the Assembly building because of what they said was a "constitutional coup directed by the Democratic Front".
After they left the Assembly session, the citizens were joined by members of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) in front of the parliament building.
After a short greeting, the members of the DPS and the citizens parted ways.
During the protest in front of the Assembly building, the presence of the police was increased.
Due to the gathering of citizens, the traffic on the part of Bulevar Svetog Petar Cetinjsko, from the Blaž Jovanović bridge to the "Hilton" hotel, was closed to traffic.
On the eve of the protest itself, two women came out of the Assembly building, carrying the national flag, and joined the crowd.
The crowd shouted "treason", "get out, Montenegrins"...
Earlier, DPS deputy Dragutin Papović addressed those gathered in front of the parliament building.
The citizens told him "that he should invite the people to gather in front of the Assembly".
Papović told the crowd that upon returning to the plenary hall, he would inform the other deputies that the citizens had gathered in front of the Parliament building.
DPS MPs Jevto Eraković, Aleksandra Vuković, Petar Ivanović also addressed the citizens.
The members of the DPS said that they came out to greet the crowd and thank them for their support.
Vuković told the crowd that "DPS will fight in the elections" and that it is "the best fight".
Ivanovic told the crowd that his proposal was that the 39 deputies should go and file a complaint with the prosecutor's office.
Social Democrat MP Boris Mugoša and DPS MP Nela Savković-Vukčević also addressed the citizens.
Members of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) Draginja Vuksanović Stanković and Adnan Striković also addressed the crowd.
Vuksanović Stanković told the citizens that she called for the protests so that a thousand people would come out.
The SDP MP also stated that her "life is in danger".
"I will give my life for my country. If I need a rifle in my hand, then a rifle in my hand," Vuksanović Stanković said.
She also stated that Montenegro was one step away from the European Union, and that now it is "returned to the nineties".
Liberal Party MP Andrija Popović also greeted those gathered.
Citizens were also greeted by DPS MP Nikola Janović.
Around 19:XNUMX, citizens began to gather on Independence Square, from where they headed towards the Assembly building.
In the invitation, which was published earlier today on social networks, the citizens of Podgorica are invited to come out in order to "prevent the collapse of the state".
"Let's gather at Trg in Podgorica, if we want to stay in our country," the invitation reads.
As one of the reasons for the protest, they cited "constant and frequent threats to members of the Montenegrin people".
