The newly elected President of Montenegro, Jakov Milatovic, said that his 
position on the genocide in Srebrenica is very clear and that he condemns all 
the crimes that took place.

“The International Court was very clear and made a decision regarding 
Srebrenica… It is very important that the International Court somewhere 
individualized the genocide in Srebrenica. My position in this sense is very 
clear, the Montenegrin parliament also passed a resolution when it comes to 
Srebrenica. It is very important that as a region, together, we pass judgment 
on the past, which was difficult. The past that had a Srebrenica, but also 
Jasenovac, the past that also had things in Montenegro like the great crime in 
Piva, Velica… These are all things that I clearly condemn,” Milatović told Al 
Jazeera Balkans.

Milatovic defeated the then incumbent President and candidate Milo Djukanovic 
in the recent elections. For some, it was characterized as a step away from 
Europe, and a step closer to the “Serbian world,” while for others the end of 
one of the last dictators of Europe – Djukanovic.


Dodik condemns Milatovic


The President of Bosnia’s Serb-dominated Republika Srpska (RS) entity assessed 
that “Milatovic is judging Srebrenica in the same way as his predecessor.”

“Referring to the judgments of the International Court, and not mentioning the 
great suffering of Serbs in and around Srebrenica… shows that Milatovic chose 
to flatter Sarajevo without hesitating to insult the Serbs and Republika 
Srpska. It’s a shame, I thought that the anti-Serb policy in Montenegro was 
defeated,” Dodik said.

He assessed that the Montenegrin President would never have been elected 
without the votes of Serbs, and that fact obliged him to show minimum 
consideration for that electorate.

“I still think that Milatovic is a less bad choice than Djukanovic, but he is 
also a less difficult opponent to replace than Djukanovic. The next time they 
vote in Montenegro, Serbs should know whom and what policies they are voting 
for. It’s clear that this time they voted against Djukanovic and not for 
Milatovic,” the RS President concluded.
