The President of the Municipality of Šavnik, Jugoslav Jakić, asked the General Director of the Radio Television of Montenegro (RTCG) Boris Raonic to publicly apologize for the statements of Montesong presenter Marko Todorović.
"Dear Mr. Raonic, I did not want to react hastily, hoping that in the meantime we would receive an apology regarding the scandalous statement of the host or the hired entertainer during the broadcast of the Montesong program. Unfortunately, this event represents a picture of the times in which 'art' is used to belittle and insult." , wrote Jakić in a post on Facebook.
He said that mockingly bringing the citizens of Šavnik and the municipality itself into the context of something less valuable, within the framework of an artist competition, is more than devastating.
"It is even more worrying when this happens on the program of the Public Service, an institution that should promote inclusivity, respect and quality. As hosts, we had the opportunity to host the teams of your media company, with the belief that through this cooperation we are investing in the future of generations to come. This summer we once again supported the creation of artistic and film content in the area of the municipality of Šavnik. destination'", pointed out Jakić.
"The presenter, as well as the screenwriter, are obviously not aware of the fact that, by using the language of Vuk Stefanović Karadžić, they addressed the birthplace of that great man, as well as Borislav Pekić. With their statement, they humiliated themselves above all, trying to present the insult as an artistic expression. Therefore, on behalf of the citizens of Šavnik, I insist on a public apology in order to restore the dignity and trust that was violated on this occasion," concluded Jakić.
