Prime Minister Dritan Abazović said that the Minister of Justice Marko Kovač was the first minister to visit Potočari, but that he did not hear the applause then.
Commenting on the visit of Kovač and Finance Minister Aleksandar Damjanović to the ceremonial academy on the occasion of Republika Srpska (RS) Day in Banja Luka, he said that it will not happen that he will hear volleys of criticism against Kovač and Damjanović.
Abazović announced that he saw the reaction of the Mother of Srebrenica, but that he did not see any gratitude to Marko Kovač when he visited Potočare.
He stated that the two of them clearly said yesterday that they support the constitutional arrangement of Bosnia and Herzegovina and that he did not know that they would go to Banjaluka, because they did not ask "that it be processed through the Government".
"Procedures are known when someone officially travels to a country. They are ministers 24 hours a day and that is something that no one can avoid, but one is state policy, and the other is a personal preference, which everyone uses the possibility of the right to realize." Abazović told reporters after visiting "Plantaže".
He pointed out that "of course" he will not replace Kovač and Damjanović.
"I didn't see that anyone praised the six-member delegation that went to Potočare. Don't expect me, when someone does the opposite of what I think they should do, to put my foot on their neck. I won't fire them, they are my colleagues , everything that has been a matter of agreement has been respected. Maybe they don't like all my statements, maybe I don't like the actions of other ministers, but I consider that part of the political spectrum that exists in Montenegro."
He said that the officials of Bosnia and Herzegovina know very well what the position of the Government of Montenegro is regarding the integrity of that country.
"Personally, I will not go into whether they should have been there or not, they respected the agreement to go to Potočari. They have the right to their political views," Abazović added.
He also said that the questions for Kovač and Damjanović are why one claims that during the visit he attended in the capacity of a minister, and the other in a personal capacity.
"Damjanović said exactly what is correct," said Abazović.
Damjanović said that he attended the ceremony in Banja Luka on the occasion of Republika Srpska Day in his own name and that he respects the sovereignty of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Kovač said that he attended the ceremony as a minister, and that he received the invitation from the President of the RS, Milorad Dodik.
