A historical and cultural center, the Montenegrin capital celebrated Liberation Day and Capital Day.

On that occasion, Mayor Nikola Đurašković said that Cetinje and the citizens of Cetinje stand firmly on the sidelines of the Montenegrin language, citizenship and identity.

"I assure you that we will not silently observe the planned game with the official language, nor the created idea to create the conditions through dual citizenship for the fate of Montenegro to be decided outside its borders. This is a red line, the crossing of which civil and European Montenegro will not calmly observe". pointed out Nikola Đurašković, mayor of Cetinje.

The Parliament of the Capital recently, on the initiative of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS), unanimously decided that the Speaker of the Parliament Andrija Mandić is not welcome in Cetinje, until he publicly apologizes to the citizens of Cetinje for everything he said in connection with the Capital.

Asked how that decision will look in practice, Đurašković says today that it is unimportant whether Mandic will apologize, because everything he announced in the previous period guarantees that the apology will not be sincere.

"Mr. Mandic was not invited to any official event of the capital and we will follow such an example in the future," said Đurašković.

When asked if this could possibly be interpreted in some way as a violation of some human rights by declaring him an undesirable person, Đurašković replied: "Not absolutely, the Assembly of the Capital has the right to make such conclusions, but precisely the way of applying those conclusions in practice will eventually give space for comments, but we will do our best to prevent this from happening."

At the ceremonial session in the Government House, it was announced that November 13 is the holiday of freedom, courage and unwavering struggle of the Montenegrin people.

Đurašković pointed out that they are committed to the development of Cetinje, and that in the previous year they realized numerous investments, infrastructure projects and events, and that Cetinje is among the leaders of Montenegrin municipalities in terms of capital budget implementation. Awards were presented to the best students at the ceremony.
