Vice President of the Civic Movement URA, Ana Novaković Đurović, told "Colors of Morning" on TV Vijesti that the Proposal for Amendments to the Law on Public Assemblies is "a direct attack on freedom of assembly" and a clear indicator that the current government does not have the capacity to solve the specific problems of citizens.
Speaking on the occasion of today's debate on the Law in the Parliament of Montenegro, Novaković Đurović emphasized that it is a paradox that instead of solving the problems that citizens are protesting about, additional legal restrictions are being introduced.
"Citizens who are protesting have specific demands. Instead of institutions reacting and seeking solutions, the government is responding by passing laws that restrict fundamental freedoms. This is an indicator of their incompetence," said Novaković Đurović.
He also points out that it was the representatives of the current majority, while they were in opposition, who exercised their right to public assembly and protest, and now, as he says, they are doing the opposite of what they promised.
"Citizens will not give up their rights. This will not pass quietly and peacefully, because we are talking about freedoms guaranteed by the constitution. The implementation of the law itself will be a great challenge, as with other regulations that this majority adopts and does not implement," she assessed.
