The motive of media campaign against Montenegro: When we remove Đukanović, we can easily handle the rest

The media nationalist factorial matter is not accidentally aimed to discredit Montenegrin president with the most terrible insults, set-ups, going as far as to proclaim him a fascist who needs to be eliminated for the salvation of Serbs and Montenegro.

If the brutal media campaign is connected to the activities of Serbian services, their diplomacy, the objectives of the principals who see Mr Đukanović as a threat are clear. To the best knowledge of Dnevne novine, Serbian services, their diplomatic representatives in all structures and at all levels are doing what is clearly seen through their media – trying to destabilize Montenegro.

They are not even trying to hide that in contact with foreigners. Dnevne novine sources say that officers of Serbian security agency go around the world and in meetings with their counterparts abroad never miss a chance to call Montenegrin president a criminal, to denounce Montenegro as mafia, criminal, private state, managed by Mr Đukanović and Mr Brano Mićunović. They also say all elections in Montenegro are stolen, that only Milo’s people sit in polling stations and counting votes, that dissatisfaction rules in Montenegro…

Sources claim that Serbia’s strategic commitment is to make sure all structures at all levels make as bad image of Montenegro as possible and then to inform the public through the most widely translated and distributed newspapers that several EU countries have understood their point very well. And what about the fact that these media have been declared the leaders in publishing fake news and disinformation, the media that only last year released thousand fake news on their front pages? Does that fact matter? They believe constant media pressure and campaign against our country and Mr Đukanović will “open eyes” of the international community and foreign diplomats.

They are also in hopes that such pressure will enable them to sell their story in Europe and in the USA, expecting that a well-organized campaign will convince the EU to make Mr Đukanović resign his function by autumn.

Strategy for ousting Mr Đukanović and destabilizing Montenegro has a short-term and a long-term objective. The short-term objective is to destabilize the state and its institutions no matter the cost, with the aim of damaging Montenegro’s rating as regional leader in integration processes and economic development.

The long-term objective is to destroy Montenegro from the inside, through external influences and make it a compensation for the lost Kosovo. The only obstacle to this strategy is Mr Milo Đukanović. That is why Belgrade media are in service of those who tend to discredit him and remove him from the political stage. Sources claim one sentence is dominant in the media, intellectual and church circles: “When we remove him (Milo),we can easily handle the rest”.

The question is: How are they going to “remove” Mr Đukanović? What happened in 2016 should a warning.

 

 

SMEAR CAMPAIGN

 

How far the campaign against Mr Đukanović goes is best seen on the front pages of the Serbian media. During the epidemic they stated that “Milo proclaims epidemic only to save his position”, that “Đukanović initiates war”, that he “wants bloodshed in religious processions” , that he “calls NATO to wage war against Serbs” that he “is digging channels at the border with Serbia” . They even claimed that Montenegro’s president had COVID-19 and that he wanted help from France and Russia?!

Today, Mr Milo Đukanovič is criticized for expelling soldiers from the armed forces because they declare themselves as Serbs, that he arms Bosniaks and “milogorce” and that he “is invoking 1990s”…
