So far, negative ecological consequences have not been detected in the case of buried, dead and euthanized cows in the territory of Nikšić, announced the Minister of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Development of the North (MERS) Damjan Ćulafić.

When asked by the MINA agency to comment on the case of buried, dead and euthanized cows on the territory of Nikšić, Ćulafić said that MERS, although it is not directly responsible, is closely monitoring the events in that case, which is the result of a wider challenge that is being put before Montenegrin society and the Government.

"For now, there are no detected negative environmental consequences," Ćulafić pointed out.

He said that MERS is in permanent contact with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management and the competent Administration for Food Safety, Veterinary and Phytosanitary Affairs and that everyone is aware of the seriousness of the situation.

"As MERS and the institutions over which it controls work, conscientiously, continuously and dedicatedly monitor the situation in the field of environmental protection throughout the country, and in Niksic as well, we assure the citizens that the Ministry, in accordance with the Law, competences and powers, in case of need , take all the necessary measures to protect the environment, and therefore the health of the citizens," said Ćulafić.

He said that they have full confidence in the competent institutions dealing with this issue, believing that they are taking all the necessary steps to solve the problem in the most efficient and responsible way.

"MERS will continue to carefully monitor the further development of the situation and, if the need arises, will provide support in all necessary aspects in order to resolve this situation in the best possible way, and for the general safety of citizens," said Ćulafić.
