Government strongly condemns violence and incidents, and calls on competent authorities to prevent and sanction any attempt of endangering peace and safety of citizens

Podgorica, Montenegro (25 June 2020) -- We witnessed direct and inconsiderate examples of illegal and disorderly behaviour of individuals and groups last night, but also in the previous days, in several Montenegrin cities.
The reaction of the competent state authorities, including the police, to such behaviour is their constitutional duty and obligation. While an attack on an official and non – compliance with orders of an official, entails criminal liability and consequences throughout the world.
Therefore, a tried and tested pattern of behaviour of certain political entities, which aims at destruction towards the state and its institutions, and causing instability in Montenegro, is in action.
Unfortunately, the effects of such intentions primarily affected the members of the Police Directorate, who, while doing their job professionally and with dignity, were exposed to the most severe insults and attacks from the perpetrators of the mentioned events.
An attack on a police uniform, is an attack on the state and its fundamental values.
While an attack on every man who makes an honest living for his family, is a violence in its most primitive form.
Especially, if we bear in mind that it is an attack on the same people who, in the days of the most severe health crisis, on the first line of defence against the coronavirus, kept the safety and security of each individual and his family.
The Government strongly condemns the violence and incidents, and urges the competent authorities to resolutely and legally prevent, suppress and sanction any attempt of undermining democracy and endangering the peace and safety of our citizens.
