The current governing body consists of many entertainers and illusionists, with grand promises devolving into substantial deceptions, asserted Jevto Eraković, MP of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS).

“This was meant to be the prime minister’s moment, yet it’s just another instance of cancellation. Ultimately, the prime minister always seems to have an excuse, coordinating with the parliamentary speaker,” he stated during a press conference in the Parliament of Montenegro.

Eraković posed a question to Prime Minister Milojko Spajić regarding who he has misled more—youth, the elderly, or the entire populace?

He pointed out the numerous contradictory statements made by the Prime Minister and highlighted a few key examples.

“The latest project is Velje Brdo. The initial apartments were promised by mid-2026. We should ask the Prime Minister about the foundational work for this city the size of Nikšić. Back in mid-2020, Spajić claimed that airports and EPCG shouldn’t be privatized, but now he supports privatization. When was he accurate—2020 or now? Let’s review some key projects: a new bridge over the Tara River, expected to start in 2025. Clearly, that hasn’t progressed. The Kolašin – Andrijevica road remains stagnant too. New manufacturing plants in Pljevlja—a lime plant, a cement factory, an upgraded Thermal Power Plant, a railway to Prijepolje… Additionally, there was an announcement for a fast road from Paštrovačka gora to Split, with a tender issued last year. He said construction of the Adriatic-Ionian road would commence. A state subcontractor was also announced, encouraging citizens with even a tractor to join in… Promises were made for various road expansions between Herceg Novi and Ulcinj,” Eraković remarked.

He noted the closure of Montenegro Airlines.

“We’ve leased a new aircraft, which is standing idle at the airport, while investing 1.5 million euros annually… Can you believe we’re in a period of remarkable progress? We’re relying on low-cost Montenegrin airlines, and observe the state of our roads. Everything resembles an elaborate fabrication. Among the supposed improvements, we await the Jaz – Tivat and Sukobin – Mrkojevići boulevards, alongside the embarrassment of waiting for tourists,” Eraković emphasized.

He reminded everyone of Spajić’s commitment to establishing a cryptocurrency industry in Montenegro.

“We’re exploring new technologies rooted in Blockchain. In collaboration with Turkey, we’re developing the Bijelo Polje – Pljevlja – Sarajevo expressway. The privatization of the National Tourism Organization was also on the table, which would be unprecedented globally. The health segment for citizens is especially intriguing—he promised an increase in life expectancy, that we would all consume organic products… and that people in rural areas could earn decent salaries with just 20 goats. We still haven’t seen where those goats are. He proposed educational reforms, announcing a ‘trial block,’ intending for hearings to commence immediately tomorrow,” Eraković noted.

He added that Spajić had claimed there would be no price increases or inflation.

“When prices began to surge unpredictably once again, he proposed launching an online supermarket. Shortly after, he pledged to buy all agricultural products. Let’s also recall the promises regarding commodity reserves and distribution companies,” stated the DPS MP.

He remarked that the government is “bigger than China’s.”

“He suggested tracking each minister—hiring 30 more people because he can’t even recall all their names. There are countless more instances… Previously, politics was a serious matter. Some of us continue to think of it that way,” Eraković concluded.

“Montenegro’s only hope lies in engaging citizens eager to execute practical ideas, rather than merely glorifying grand visions. It’s vital to involve knowledgeable, trustworthy individuals who genuinely care for Montenegro,” he stated.

Eraković did not comment on whether they intend to raise the issue of confidence in the Government when questioned by reporters.

He emphasized that the relationship Spajić talks about should focus on citizens, not the opposition.

“Day by day, it’s evident that public trust is evaporating,” he remarked.
