 1995/11/07 23:03 IS THE HAGUE TO BLAME?
In a separate court proceeding Musika Dujovic, magistrate of the Basic Court of Podgorica, on the basis of a private suit of the former editor-in-chief of "Pobjeda" Vidoje Konotar and a journalist of that paper Milutin Labovic for "the criminal offence of slander" sentenced the editor Koprivica and LSCG to a 1,000 dinars fine.
According to the Liberals, the astronomical amount of 15 million din., which according to the official exchange rate equals DM 15 million, which the only daily in Montenegro demands of LSCG, is equal to the value of the entire sold circulation of "Pobjeda" over seven years at the time the suit was initiated!
Judging by this the Liberal Alliance and the "Liberal" editor Veseljko Koprivica may dearly pay for the suffered "mental distress" and the "fall of circulation and the tarnishing of the reputation and renown" of 'Pobjeda'.

 Public Opinion in Montenegro 2002.
However, the Government of the Republic of Montenegro enjoys trust of the majority of nationally declared Albanians (69.7%), Muslims (66.9%), Croats (54.5%) and Montenegrins (52.7%), while regarding party preference it is the case with the supporters of the DPS (90.7%) and the SDP (73.2%).
The reasons for such a change are probably identical or similar with those we already mentioned explaining the decrease in the support to the option of state independence, and the fact that the so-called solidity of the two coalitions is considerably different may serve as a key indicator.
This fact is not in favour of the stabilization of the democratic order in Montenegro, especially if this coalition came to a position to take over the governing in the Republic.

The defeat belongs to Montenegro for lacking a democratic alternative to a coalition of extreme Serbian nationalists and communists, who have served Slobodan Milosevic far too long to deserve to be forgiven.
