The civic movement URA has strongly condemned, as they said, the shameful, fascist and hate-filled chants heard last night during the Montenegro - Croatia football match by Croatian fans.

"Such outbursts do not belong in sport, which should unite people, celebrate fair competition and togetherness, and not be a space for hatred and division. Sport should be an example of the values ​​we cherish, respect, fair play and appreciation of diversity," the GP URA statement said.

In that civic movement, they emphasized that Montenegro is a civic state whose values ​​it must always be dedicated to.

"Montenegro is a civic and European state and must not allow extremism, hate speech or primitivism to shape its public space. Civic forces must be stronger, united and consistent in defending tolerance, dialogue and togetherness. Our future, as well as the future of the region, is European, and hatred and intolerance have no place in the society and relationships we build. Montenegro remains a place where differences are respected, and togetherness and dialogue are put before divisions," the statement concludes.
