The leader of the list of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS), Nikola Milović, said that without that party, there is no stable government in Budva.

He said that he will not accept any conditions, with the message that the parties that make up the Government have experienced a complete breakdown in Budva, and that the only way out is extraordinary parliamentary elections.

"Our backbone is unbreakable. This night confirmed what we expected that DPS continued its upward trend. I will remind you, in the elections in May we won 2.228 votes, and tonight 2.522 votes, we won 300 more votes or 15 percent more. The DPS growth trend is inexorable. But what is even more inexorable, the government parties experienced a complete breakdown in Budva", he said

As he said, the coalition of the former Democratic Front (DF), Democrats and the Europe Now Movement (PES) won 12 out of 33 mandates, while in May they had 15 mandates.

"These elections, as well as those in May, have shown that this government and the parliamentary majority do not have the legitimacy to govern the country," said Milović.

He emphasizes that the way out of this situation is clear.

"When the Government loses trust in such a radical way, the only logical solution is extraordinary parliamentary elections. As I said on May 26, I repeat tonight, without the DPS, there is no stable government in Budva. This is the victory of the true, civilized and cultural Budva and the one for which we will fight, lady Budva", he said.

Asked whether DPS will give minority support to Đorđe Zenović or Nikola Jovanović, Milović said that there is enough politicking in Budva.

"If this city and its citizens really want changes, and they showed that tonight, then as responsible people we will share the responsibility, agree on projects and connect Budva along the path of progress. There will be no conditions and our spine will not bend," Milović concluded. .

There are 33 councilor seats in the Budva parliament, so a majority of 17 councilors is needed to form a government.
