Political tensions continue to grip the nation as Andrija Mandić, President of the Parliament, faces calls for his dismissal following his controversial condolences to Ratko Mladić's family, on which he has remained silent. Mandić has also made new statements emphasizing reconciliation and European integration, signaling ongoing political maneuvering.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has clarified that an individual named Krivokapić represented himself, not the Ministry, at a recent meeting in Zagreb, raising questions about diplomatic protocol. Additionally, threats against Ervin Ibrahimović, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, have prompted urgent calls for state intervention, highlighting concerns for political figures' security.
Beyond politics, wildfires remain active in several municipalities, with emergency services deploying aerial support to combat the blazes. Separately, the city of Bar is experiencing daily traffic chaos, while a Montenegrin contestant, Maša Vukićević, has advanced to the final stage of the Miss World competition.
