PES: Milatović informed the Government representatives about the obstacles to the transition of power after the October elections

Jakov Milatović, the holder of the electoral list of the Europe Now Movement in the local elections in Podgorica, informed the representatives of the Government of Montenegro about the problems currently faced by the citizens of Podgorica, which are a consequence of the obstruction of the transition of power after the October elections.

This was announced by the Europe Now Movement.

"At the meeting, the representatives of the Government were informed in detail about the chronology of the illegal activities of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS), and its vice-president and the president of the Election Commission of the Capital City, which prevents the implementation of the electoral will of the citizens, as well as the illegal activities of the Assembly of the Capital City, which has not had a legitimate mandate since 5 July, which was confirmed by the decision of the Constitutional Court," the announcement reads.

They add that the representatives of the Government at the meeting unanimously expressed their concern about the dysfunctionality of the Capital City and that they expressed their full readiness to act proactively within their competences in order to constitute a legitimate convocation of the Assembly and elect a new city administration in accordance with the clearly expressed electoral will of the citizens.

"On October 23, the citizens clearly elected their representatives for the city parliament and thus decided who will lead them in the coming period, but it is evident that the defeated political structures are holding the citizens hostage to their arbitrariness, further collapsing the legitimacy of the functions they perform. In the light of the upcoming liberation holiday Podgorica, it is clear that this kind of usurping manner must be stopped," they conclude in the announcement.
