High temperatures did not prevent former employees of "Košuta" from blocking the road: Šćepanović is also angry with Đurašković

High temperatures did not prevent former workers of the Cetinje factory "Košuta" from blocking the Cetinje-Podgorica road for half an hour this Monday.

For more than four months now, they have been asking the Government for back wages and linking of seniority, but there is still no response from the authorities.

Kilometer-long lines of cars, citizens and confused tourists waiting in over 30 degrees - these are today's scenes from the road Podgorica - Cetinje.

The crowd was caused by a new half-hour blockade by former workers of the Cetinje factory "Košuta". They claim that they are forced to do this because the government has been ignoring their requests for over four months.

They are not giving up on the demand that almost 700 of them receive nine unpaid wages, which would cost the state 2,8 million euros, while about 80 workers are asking for the connection of seniority.

So far, only the Minister of Economic Development, Nik Đeljošaj, received them from the Government for a meeting, but that meeting was unsuccessful.

They were invited to the interview by the police, who suggested that they suspend the blockades during the summer season, but they continue with their protests.

Apart from the representatives of the Government, one of the former employees of Rada Šćepanović is also angry with the mayor of Cetinje, Nikola Đurašković, who, she says, promised them help, but now he is gone.

They also note that six former workers have died since the beginning of the protest, but that the government is not concerned about this.

Therefore, they schedule a new gathering at Kruševo džrijelo for next Monday.
