The Union of Communists of Montenegro announced today that the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) stole their buildings in Jovan Tomašević Street (the old government building) and on St. Peter Cetinjski Boulevard in Podgorica, and that now the Government of Montenegro wants to take them for its own needs.

They are asking the Government not to do that, and to either return those facilities to them or state that they are their facilities, or to give them some spaces in the city where they can work.

Otherwise, they said that they will sue the government in court and the International Court of Justice.

"Don't correct one injustice with another injustice, our buildings in the street of the national hero Jovan Tomašević (the old government building) and Bulevar Lenin, and now St. Peter Cetinjski, which were alienated from us by the DPS, and now you want to take them for your needs, no asking whose property it was. Gentlemen, with all due respect, it would be like that famous event from literature "the theft and re-stealing of bells", i.e. a new robbery, only other actors and time", the statement of the Union of Communists of Montenegro, signed by Ratko Djukic.

The League of Communists added that these facilities were built from the party membership fees of members of the League of Communists in the amount of 60 percent.

"The rest was done by that Chojski, freer, thirteenth of July, Socialist Republic, our eternal state of Montenegro. She knew that she valued what the communists and true patriots did for this freedom and the freedom of Montenegro, unlike the rulers of today's capitalist Cma Gora. That's why, respected gentlemen, we ask you not to do that, at least you for whom even declarative democracy is the starting point for a fairer society. Return the buildings to us because I guess we deserve that much, if you need them for some necessary purposes and for the state of Montenegro, you will deal with the communists easy to agree, because we honestly and communistally love our country to the end, and we are always ready to give much more for it than those facilities, as we have always done, and we are proud of that," the announcement reads.

The Union of Communists said that the new party, DPS, which was formed in 1992, usurped their facilities and all the money from the party's giro account.

"Those who are supposed to be guided by the law and the truth in life know that, many of our citizens and parliamentarians know that, even the birds on the branches know that, everyone knew that back then, but unfortunately, they had some "own" reasons and accounts to That's why we are asking them now to speak up, gentlemen, not because of us communists who have been on the streets and next to our "houses" for more than 30 years, speak up because the truth is democracy, the truth is the best medicine for all social delusions and absurdities. We said, if our beautiful Montenegro needs these facilities of ours, all for Montenegro, just let it be stated that these are our facilities and let us be given some spaces somewhere in the city where we can finally work. dialogue to justice, and through victory to freedom, and therefore we expect that you, respected gentlemen, will understand our message well and have enough hearing and political wisdom when deciding on our request for the return of property, or we will sue you in court and even the International Court of Justice , because we don't want other people's and we don't give ours," concludes the statement of the Union of Communists.
