Montenegro is a secular state in which everyone should mind their own business, said Prime Minister Milojko Spajić, stating that he does not accept advice from clergy on history, politics and finances.

Spajić said this when asked to comment on statements by representatives of the Metropolitanate of Montenegro and the Littoral in which history is revised.

He emphasized that Montenegro is a secular state and that everyone should mind their own business.

"I think that all of Montenegro is a bit surprised by the series of statements coming from religious authorities that concern some other topics that are not of a religious nature," said Spajić.

He said that he had answered a completely identical question before.

"I don't honestly accept advice from priests on matters of history, politics, finance, economics, sports, music," Spajić said.

When asked when he would answer questions from MPs in the Parliament, Spajić replied that he would come to the Parliament when some of the decisions that the Government submitted to the Parliament back in August or September last year are adopted.

Commenting on allegations about possible mechanisms for sanctioning members of the Government for disrespecting the Parliament, Spajić said that MPs should first sanction themselves for failing to make decisions.

"First they need to sanction themselves for not adopting things that the state has been waiting for for over a year, and then we'll talk about sanctioning others," Spajić said.
