The Pljeval Committee of the Movement Europe has now announced that it will not support the local government if the President of the Municipality, Dario Vraneš, continues with the policy he is currently leading.

They announced that they "strongly condemn" the behavior of Vraneš, which, they say, represents a blatant example of retrograde politics that has nothing to do with the real needs of citizens.

They said that Vraneš, instead of focusing on improving standards, implementing concrete projects and solving problems that affect their fellow citizens every day, is using his position to promote divisive ideologies and nationalist rhetoric.

Vraneš posted a photo on Instagram last night with the song "Get ready, get ready Chetniks". In the photo are also his colleagues from New Serbian Democracy, which is part of the Government - Nikšić Municipality President Marko Kovačević, MP Jovan Vučurović and Nova councilor in Pljevlja Municipality Dragiša Pivljanin. "The company is small, but selected", wrote Vraneš in the so-called "story".

"We clearly say that this kind of policy will not bring improvement or progress to Pljevlja. The citizens of our city deserve a government that will deal with economic development, infrastructure projects, creating new jobs and creating conditions for a better quality of life - and not rhetoric that takes us back," he writes. in the announcement.

They called on Vraneš to turn his attention to solving the real problems of the citizens, because otherwise PES will not be part of the government that does not represent the interests of all the people of Pljevlja.

"Our vision is a modern, civic and European Montenegro, and Pljevlja, as a city of multi-ethnic coexistence, must be an example of development, tolerance and progress. Retrograde politics has no place either in Pljevlja or in Montenegro," the announcement reads.

From the Municipal Board of GP Ura in Pljevlja, which is part of the ruling coalition in that city, they do not support "such" actions of the mayor of the municipality, Dario Vraneš, and they no longer want to give him legitimacy.

"The municipal board of GP Ura Pljevlja does not support this kind of action by President Vraneš, and we no longer want to give him legitimacy for his actions that put Pljevlja and Pljevljake in a negative public focus every day. All this is just one big show that aims to mask inaction, as well as the absence of ideas for the further development of Pljevlja, despite an extremely generous capital budget. OO GP URA will not support the holders of the retrograde policy of the past", Vesko Bošnjak, president of the URA Municipal Board in Pljevlja, told the News, commenting on the post on the social networks of the president of Pljevlja Darija Vraneš. Ura in the local parliament is represented by one councilor.

The Municipal Board of Democratic Montenegro called on all officials "to refrain from content that will cause divisions in public announcements, including posts on social networks."

"Pljevlje has challenging years ahead of it and we must all dedicate ourselves to infrastructure projects and development together. It is not good that these topics are in the background. Everyone bears political responsibility for public speaking, and we, as constituents of the government, have our own principles that we insist on. We all have to return to the path of development and creation of new jobs, and we do not support any political stance that endangers that path and diverts the public's attention to other topics," states the answer of the Press Service of the Municipal Board of Demokrat Pljevlja.

In the Municipal Committee of the SNP in Pljevlje, they said that the party inherits multi-ethnic and multi-confessional values.

"On the occasion of the nationalist posts on the social networks of Mayor Dr. Dario Vraneš, we emphasize that the Socialist People's Party remains firmly on the civil political course that inherits multi-ethnic and multi-confessional values, respecting all differences that are an integral and inseparable part of the community in which we live. The environment in which we live, the municipality of Pljevlja, has always been recognized for good neighborly, inter-ethnic, inter-religious and interpersonal relations and should be recognized as such in the future as well. Therefore, respecting all the ideological and cultural peculiarities of every nation and every confession, the Socialist People's Party will always inherit civil unity in diversity, multi-ethnic coexistence and inter-religious harmony. We believe that our views are shared by the entire community in which we live, because this is the only possible way for a society to survive on sound foundations as perspective and unique", said the president of the SNP Municipal Board Saša Grbović.

Councilor Milomir Drobnjak, who left PES a few months ago and is now acting as an independent councilor in the Pljevlja Municipal Assembly, said that the past should be left to historians.

"Let's leave the past to the historians, and we were elected to deal with the life issues of our citizens. It would be desirable to focus on these issues," Drobnjak briefly commented on Vraneš's post on social networks.

The Movement for Pljevlja and United Montenegro did not respond to the request to comment on Vraneš's post on social networks.
