Mugoša said that when it comes to the elections in Podgorica, they must return to the fact that the government was overthrown because it did not function.

"The governing parties that formed the previous government in Podgorica won 33 mandates in the elections," Borovinić Bojović reminded.

20: 22h

Mugoša said that they responded to the call of the DPS, just as they would have responded to the call of others.

"It is not right to think that in the pre-election campaign we say one thing and then we are expected to do something else after the elections... If we called the elections so that everything would be the same after them, it would be a mockery of the citizens".

He added that everyone must think about what the citizens were promised before the elections.

"In these elections, the anti-government narrative received 55 percent of the support of the citizens. This city needs changes as soon as possible," said the DPS list holder in the local elections in Podgorica. 

When asked if DPS is ready to give up the post of mayor, he replied:
