These days, hundreds of people support the idea of forming the Bosniak Democratic Movement, said one of the founders and president of that movement, Sead Šahman, on the X social network.
"As responsible people, we had an obligation to the people to respond to the call of the people living in Montenegro, but also to the strong voices coming to us from the diaspora," Šahman said.
The Bosniak Democratic Movement was presented last week in Podgorica, and Šahman was unanimously nominated for president.
"Today we want to present a new Bosniak project that is superior to what the Bosniaks had as an option. Twenty-five young and educated people said 'no in our name'. The Bosniak Party (BS) trampled on our ideals. A good part of us was a member of BS, and one part was never a member of the party," Šahman said at the presentation of the nascent movement.
He pointed out that they see their story not as an alternative to the Bosniak Party (BS), but as the number one option among the Bosniak population.
"What we are doing today is the call of Bosniaks and the diaspora who say that their interests are not affirmed in the right way...", said Šahman.
