Restriction

Protest Ban Imposed, Mandić Faces Srebrenica Demand

Montenegrin police have prohibited former Primorka workers from blocking a main road, citing traffic congestion and a scheduled concert as overriding public interests. This development comes as Montenegro prepares to ratify a protocol to enhance police cooperation and automated data exchange with regional and EU law enforcement agencies on DNA, fingerprints, and vehicle information.

Political pressure continues to mount on Andrija Mandić, with Andrija Nikolić, chairman of the parliamentary group of the Democratic Party of Socialists, publicly challenging Mandić to visit Srebrenica and apologize. Meanwhile, an extensive police operation is underway in Grahovo, with authorities searching for fugitive Ljubo Milović, a suspended police officer linked to a criminal clan, and a suspected secret tunnel.

In a positive move for European integration, the government is creating new opportunities for skilled domestic individuals to pursue careers within European institutions. Firefighting efforts also remain intense across the country as authorities continue to deploy all available resources.
