Big projects can only be represented by stable governments, Prime Minister Milojko Spajić said.
He said this at the press conference where the "Velje brdo" project was presented, answering a journalist's question about whether there is instability in the Government after the parties that do not agree with the construction of a monument to Metropolitan Amfilohi Radović in Berane left the session.
"I think that only stable governments can present such grandiose projects with long-term impacts on society in this way," Spajić said.
As he added, there are Government decisions with which some members will agree or disagree.
"This is not the first, nor the last time, that this is happening and I look at it through the prism of democracy," emphasized Spajić, adding that they have an almost two-thirds majority in the parliament.
Spajić did not answer the journalist's question whether, as prime minister, he supports the idea of building a monument to Amfilochius in Berane.
Asked if there was misuse of state resources for pre-election purposes in the presentation of the "Velje brdo" project in the capital on the Sunday before the elections, Spajić pointed out that elections are held in Montenegro every two to three months.
"Does this mean that we need to stop the state so that all local elections are arranged and that the merry-go-round of election cycles continues, and that we just sit and look at the sky or that we work," asked Spajić.
He emphasized that he thinks they should work.
"September is the month when the state administration returned to work and began to work at full steam. Expect it to be like this every month," said Spajić.
Answering the question of whether the same practices that were criticized during the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) rule are applied, Spajić said that there were no results during the DPS.
"DPS did not produce results, DPS ran a partitocratic regime, gave apartments to privileged citizens. These are practices that are history, we want to prove ourselves to the citizens with the results, and that is legitimate," said Spajić.
As he added, these results apply to all citizens, not only those who vote for a party.
"Discrimination does not exist, we will continue to work regardless of when and where the elections are," Spajić said.
Asked whether the project will accelerate internal migration and why it is being done in Podgorica, Spajić pointed out that 90 percent of Montenegrin tenants live in Podgorica.
According to him, the labor market creates the dynamics of internal migration, not housing programs.
