Montenegro is experiencing political shifts as Deputy Prime Minister Jelena Borovinić Bojović has resigned from a council position, acting in accordance with an opinion from the Agency for Prevention of Corruption. This development comes as President Jakov Milatović's cabinet issued a formal clarification that Montenegro's presence at the 'Oluja' commemoration is not a state obligation, a move reflecting a nuanced approach to regional historical events.
Meanwhile, a columnist has weighed in on Montenegro's geopolitical direction, arguing that the nation is firmly choosing a European path over a 'Serbian world' concept. The debate over Italy's alleged plan for migrant centers in Montenegro also continues, with a politician disputing claims and clarifying that it is not an EU requirement.
On the domestic front, the country grapples with record traffic congestion on its roads, particularly over the past weekend, and concerns are rising among parents in Podgorica regarding the start of the school year following a flood at the Vuk Karadžić elementary school. In a positive note, the Montenegrin national water polo team secured a victory against Italy.
