  • Andrei Soldatov
    Andrei Soldatov “The problem is to actually be able to prevent terrorist attacks, you need to have a really good and efficient system of intelligence sharing and intelligence gathering. Trust is needed inside the home agency and with agencies of other countries, as is good coordination. That's where you have problems.” 21 hours ago
  • Dmitry Peskov
    Dmitry Peskov “All war crimes [committed] by the Kyiv regime are thoroughly documented. We were well aware of these crimes. And, of course, we will make sure that those behind these crimes are duly punished.” 22 hours ago
  • Timothy Snyder
    Timothy Snyder “The terrorists' car was stopped near Bryansk, which is in western Russia, and so vaguely near Ukraine, which means that the four Tajiks in a Renault were intending to cross the Ukrainian border, which means that they had Ukrainian backers, which means that it was a Ukrainian operation, which means that the Americans were behind it. The reasoning here leaves something to be desired. And the series of associations rests on no factual basis.” 22 hours ago
  • Vladimir Putin
    Vladimir Putin “We have no aggressive intentions towards these states. The idea that we will attack some other country - Poland, the Baltic States, and the Czechs are also being scared - is complete nonsense. It's just drivel. If they supply F-16s, and they are talking about this and are apparently training pilots, this will not change the situation on the battlefield. And we will destroy the aircraft just as we destroy today tanks, armoured vehicles and other equipment, including multiple rocket launchers. Of course, if they will be used from airfields in third countries, they become for us legitimate targets, wherever they might be located.” 22 hours ago

“Before his ouster, Djukanovic had warned that Serbia is seeking to establish a 'Serbian world' where it would exert control over all Balkan states with historic links to Serbia, including Montenegro. With Serb nationalists celebrating Djukanovic's ousting across the Balkans and Milatović declaring his ambition to strengthen ties with Serbia, it appears, at least for now, that the change in leadership in Montenegro will help Belgrade's ambitions for regional hegemony. It was telling that Milatović's supporters celebrated his victory by waving Serbian flags.”

“A new government should be formed as soon as possible, and the new Prime Minister-designate could be anyone with support of at least 41 MPs [in the 81-seat chamber]. If the negotiations fail, we will go on to early elections.”

“Instead of cooperation with the Democratic Front, they were lobbying … in Western ambassies against us. If Djukanovic's DPS supports a new government, it will be a betrayal of our electoral win and it will provoke serious instability.”

“It's hard to expect that opposition initiative will pass, even if we have a political blockage due to disagreements between the ruling leaders. No one from the ruling majority could take on the burden of overthrowing the government.”

“There is an increased number of investigations in cases of money-laundering and more such cases are before the courts in Montenegro. Also, the ministry is working on a new Law on Prevention of Money-Laundering and Terrorist Financing.”

“This would cause great tensions and lead to pre-census campaigns and would negatively affect the quality of all the other data. Also, international standards say that population censuses should be avoided in turbulent socio-political periods. Due to the extremely unstable socio-political situation in the country and the lack of trust in [state] institutions, the census should be organised at the earliest in October 2022.”

“As you can see, that is not possible. You know that the three partners in the new alliance of the ruling majority signed an agreement the day after the end of the parliamentary elections, committing themselves to follow the strategic course of the country's movement. But, with that formality, of course, it was necessary to show during the previous year the real determination to continue by adopting the European value system and creating the assumption that Montenegro soon will actually be an organic part of modern European civilization. Therefore, it is a responsible part of Euro-Atlantic integration. Not even a half step has been taken. The half-step that is now expected is for the new government to meet the preconditions in Chapters 23 and 24 concerning the rule of law, for the European Union to declare that we have met the provisional criteria given to us and to start the process of closing open chapters. . To date, this has not happened. Therefore, there is not even a minimal shift.”

“This initiative is part of the evidence that the government is under the strong influence of the Serbian Orthodox Church and also undermining the civic character of Montenegrin state.”

“We question the utility of a national census that collects data relating to ethnic identity at this time - certain political forces are cynically championing this undertaking, hoping it will further drive a wedge between those who identify as Montenegrin and those who identify as Serb. How does this help the country move forward?”

“The path you [Montenegro] have taken is arduous and long, but it is impressive that you are following it. Without the accession of the Western Balkan countries to the European Union, the EU is not complete either.”

“Given that for the first time in the history of Montenegro, one government was replaced by democratic, electoral means, we can say that, in the political sense, Montenegro has been liberated. But we are aware that we are in a democratic transition and that democracy and pluralism still need truly to live in all segments, heads and pores of our society. Montenegro must demonstrate justice, democracy and tolerance. Predecessors spoke of 'coexistence', our goal is a step further - the permeation of diversity through a true process of inclusion. My wish and my decision were for the Government to be a Government of experts, a Government of civic orientation. That was the historical need of all citizens of Montenegro.”

“Today's performance with Serbian tricolors in Montenegrin towns confirms that the 'Serbian world' is an ideology supported by two-thirds of the Montenegrin authorities.”

“I have told the Prime Minister and my colleagues in the government several times they are crossing a red line. It's possible we will not have a new Interior Minister - but then we will have a new Prime Minister. I will overthrow the government. I will stop giving support to the government if I think they are doing something that is unfair.”

“In Cetinje, the DPS [Democratic Party of Socialists] organised a projected threat to the security of citizens in order to advance its personal and political interests. Djukanovic [Milo Djukanovic] has obviously become a factor of instability and that is clearly seen in the international community.”

“Now is the time for all decision-makers in Montenegro to prove their commitment to the EU path and EU values, promoting peace and tolerance and working together constructively, despite all political differences, for the benefit of citizens and the country's European future.”

“If someone wants to return Karadjordjevic property, he is probably making the statement that Montenegrins are Serbs and their place is with Serbia. This is clearly a slap at the ideology of Djukanovic [Milo Djukanovic] and others who favor Montenegrin independence and separate identity. Monarchy is a dead issue in the postcommunist Balkans, of symbolic value at best. These royal families probably mean little or nothing to most Montenegrins, except as historical curiosities.”

“The Democratic Front alone cannot win a majority in Montenegro, but [Marko Carevic] might be their front-runner in the next parliamentary elections and maybe the presidential election. He has a strong presence, not just locally, but nationally in Montenegro. He is building up his, let's say, Serbian world portfolio.”
