The author and host of the show, Petar Komnenić, said that TV Vijesti has unofficially learned that tomorrow there will be a decision on the calling of extraordinary parliamentary elections, which are planned for May 28 or June 4.
He asked the participants how they should enter those elections, which will depend on the presidential elections held on Sunday.
Krapović said that the parliamentary elections will be a reflection of the presidential elections.
"I think we are entering these elections with a handicap. We could have had a 44-year government that would have the character of an election. However, we will enter with a government that is truncated, does not have full composition and does not have full legitimacy. It is not good for such a government to lead us to elections. We have to to be next to that too," Krapović said.
Lekić said that it is necessary for the President of the Assembly to schedule the Collegium because the Assembly can shorten the mandate.
"I think the majority opinion in the Assembly is to shorten the mandate after the failure of the formation of the 44th Government. A way out is possible and it is not far from Đukanović's idea, only that he is usurping it. He does not have the authority to dissolve (the Assembly), it has only a ceremonial role," he said. is Lekic.
Adžić said that the President of Montenegro and DPS Milo Đukanović is the biggest cause of problems and instability on the political scene.
"I believe that in the first round we will have the certainty that he will no longer be the president of Montenegro, which will help unblock the processes," Adžić said.
He said that Đukanović failed to destroy the URA Civil Movement.
Ivanovic said that they are convinced that their candidate for the President of Montenegro, Jakov Milatović, will make it to the second round of the presidential elections and win over Đukanović.
"With Milatović's victory over Đukanović, a big wave will start that will greet us for the parliamentary elections that the same Đukanović called, and it will be a wonderful poetic justice and victory over DPS," Ivanović said.
Adžić said that the leader of the Movement Europe now met all the conditions to be a presidential candidate and that this opportunity was unfairly denied to him.
On the occasion of DF presidential candidate Andrija Mandić's request to postpone his appearance before the MUP regarding his Serbian citizenship, he said that they received a letter from Mandić's legal representative requesting the postponement of the statement.
"I think his statement is scheduled for the 24th, around 20pm on the 24th of April. That is his legal right," Adžić said.
He said that he understands the need of part of the public to disqualify Spajić and Mandić.
He said that he cannot prejudge that they will get the information they are looking for from another country, but that he is very skeptical.
Lekić said that he is also in favor of early parliamentary elections.
He said that he offered two modalities for the Government he would lead.
"One for the URA to come in with three deputies who would vote or for it to be supported from the outside. Abazović said he would think about it and he never answered me," said Lekić.
He said that when there was a possibility that Abazović would be the prime minister, which he says he immediately accepted because of a bigger goal.
"Not because I think it belongs to him. I thought that URA had the most interest in being the engine to get out of the Government's controversies with DF. In that sense, DF was foreseen and the ideological-political profile did not interfere. Then URA contributed to some interest of the state which maybe I didn't understand. It came down to the moment that the URA won't for a certain reason," said Lekić.
Adžić told Lekić that he did not understand what the problem was.
He said that the decision of the Main Board of the URA GP was to support the president of that party and the current Prime Minister, Dritan Abazović, to form the Government.
Ivanovic said that Europe has not given the President of Montenegro Milo Đukanović room for anything.
He said that on March 19 or April 2, Montenegro will get a new president and that it will not be Đukanović.
Ivanovic said that he and Europe cannot now be sad that the 44th government was not formed and that the fallen 43rd government was not reconstructed.
"We are reaching the outcome we have been calling for since this summer - extraordinary parliamentary elections, but we are not happy that those elections did not come about with an agreement with those we consider partners, who sit in parliament and who could take responsibility for the crisis the country is in and call for extraordinary parliamentary elections," Ivanovic said.
He said that the experience of cohabitation showed that the President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, was ready to do anything, to obstruct one, another, or a third government. His strategy was to obstruct every institution except himself in order to present himself to the citizens and the international factor, albeit unsuccessfully, as the only functional, legitimate and democratically elected institution in the country," Ivanović said.
Regarding today's action of the Special Police Department (SPO), Adžić said that this action is an indicator of why the processes in Montenegro are going slowly.
"We generally have a problem with captured institutions, not only the police, but all others. This is a consequence of the 30-year rule of the same regime. We have lost the border between representatives of criminal structures and state institutions. I did not want to talk about the pressures I suffered, about everything what I went through with my colleagues and family in order not to play the victim. I didn't want to talk about the obstructions that are everyday within the institution, because I didn't want it to be an alibi for not achieving results. What is happening today and what will happen today is the result of a lot of work , dishonoring the great trust of international institutions," Adžić said.
He added that they expect the continuation of this action.
He said that even within the police there is an alarmingly large number of people connected to criminal structures.
"We are thinking about introducing vetting for all police officers. The situation is so problematic, I'm not saying that each of the officers is equally involved in criminal activities, but these people spent time together, in the same offices, that there were friendly, godfather relations, the process release could not come overnight," he said.
The former commander of the Podgorica police, Ivan Stamatović, is on the list for arrest in the SPO operation led by SDT, while inspectors are still looking for his suspended colleague Nebojša Bugarin.

Stamatović worked in the sector managed by the former assistant director of the Police Directorate, Zoran Lazović.
Among those arrested in this action are former police special officer Vladimir Bajčeta and police officer Milan Popović, who worked in the Kotor police. Tihomir Adžić from Podgorica was also arrested and taken to the SDT for questioning.
Bajčeta is the former bodyguard of Duško Šarić, the brother of the alleged head of the Balkan drug cartel, Darko Šarić.
Adžić said that this situation deals a big blow to organized criminal groups.
He also said that it is not excluded that today's move by the President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, to pass the Decree on the dissolution of the Assembly, is related to the activities that have been announced.
"Because we will remember when Prime Minister Abazović's government was overthrown - when people close to the Democratic Party of Socialists were attacked," Adžić said.
Adžić said that if we refer to Article 92 paragraph 3 of the Constitution that "the Assembly is dissolved by Decree of the President of Montenegro", then he can dissolve it at any moment.
"There is no logic. There is no legal basis," Adžić said.
Krapović said that in the Decree of the President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, on the dissolution of the Assembly, it is written that it enters into force on the day of its adoption, and that it will be published in the Official Gazette.
"If it is an individual act, you cannot challenge it before the Constitutional or Administrative Court. The president resorted to what he does all the time, deceiving the public, sowing fog, violating the Constitution. This is the continuity of his actions. He told lies even when he was prime minister and in his first term while he was president," Krapović said.
Lekić said that he does not know how to put DPS and DF on the same level.
"The DF is the winner in the elections," Lekić said.
Adžić said that he never equated DPS and DF.
Adžić said that the President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, is using his position to create trouble and chaos, aware of the impossibility of winning any elections.
"The only option he has at this moment is to cause instability and chaos in order to prevent the institutions," Adžić said.
Lekić said that it could happen that Đukanović, as president of the country, calls for elections and starts the process, and that the Constitutional Court concludes that Đukanović unconstitutionally dissolved the parliament.
He said that he was repeatedly asked what would happen if he became prime minister, and the Constitutional Court found the Law on the President unconstitutional, so that he would resign.
Lekić said that the government can be formed by 12 o'clock tonight, but that it will not be formed.
"Djukanović is always leading a policy of the worse the better. The greater the production of chaos, the better for us. He behaves like a partial capo, the party president, he showed it with the example of the ambassador," said Lekić.
He added that it turned out that the institutional side of the state, the facade, is often false.
"The government was run in parallel, the institutions were controlled, I'm not generalizing, the judiciary was controlled," said Lekić.
Krapović said that it remains to be seen when Đukanović will call for elections.
He said that former Prime Minister Zdravko Krivokapić initiated the dissolution of the Assembly and that it was rejected.
"Then for months we called for the shortening of the mandate of the Assembly, so it was rejected," Krapović said.
When asked by the show's author Petar Komnenić what if the Constitutional Court decides that the amendments to the Law on the President are unconstitutional, Lekić said that we are now living in a chaotic moment.
"If there had been elementary coordination in the cohabitation system, this would have been avoided. This law was a defense of the Constitution. What would have directed the chaotic situation towards a solution is the activity of the Constitutional Court," said Lekić.
Adžić said that they cannot influence the speed of action of the Constitutional Court.
"If it turns out that Đukanović violated the Constitution, the conditions are met for him to be removed from office. I believe that he will be removed much sooner by the will of the citizens than by the decision of the Constitutional Court," said Adžić.
Komnenic said that even if the Constitutional Court reacts now, it does not have the possibility to make a decision before Đukanović's decision causes consequences.
"The decision, the Decree of Đukanović (on the dissolution of the Assembly) should not be published in the Official Gazette until the opinion of the Constitutional Court," Adžić said.
The author of the show, Petar Komnenić, said that President Đukanović does not specify the legal basis for the dissolution of the Assembly in the Decree.
Adžić said that Đukanović, in violation of the Constitution, did not propose a representative and that the representative was proposed by the Assembly.
"He is trying to combine the incompatible and refers to paragraph 3, which is the final act of the procedure and not the basis for dissolving the parliament," Adžić said.
"This is a legal maneuver that even a serious lawyer will dispute," said Adžić.
He said that the amendments to the Law on the President were adopted because Đukanović has been constantly obstructing processes in Montenegro since August 30, 2020.
Krapović said that neither the Constitution nor the law gives Đukanović the right to mislead the public.
He said that neither he nor his party felt any responsibility because Đukanović dissolved the Assembly.
When asked whether the constitutional and legal conditions have been met today for the President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, to dissolve the parliament by decree and start calling for extraordinary parliamentary elections, Adžić said that the conditions have not been met.

"This is a desperate attempt by a loser who is aware that there is not even a glimmer of hope that he can win the presidential elections," said Adžić.
Ivanovic said that Europe has been saying for months now that extraordinary parliamentary elections are the only way out of the crisis.
"We are ready for the elections," Ivanovic said.
Krapović said that Đukanović has no basis or legitimacy for this move.
"From a constitutional and legal point of view, Đukanović had no right to make this move," said Krapović.
Lekić said that early elections are a top priority issue.
He said that nowhere in the powers of the president does it say that he dissolves the parliament.
He said that Đukanović's decision was of an electoral nature.
"I think he is doing it out of desperation in an effort to secure immunity," said Lekic.
