I believe that the Constitutional Court will annul the decision to postpone the elections
CDT Executive Director Dragan Koprivica said that he expects the Constitutional Court of Montenegro to cancel the decision to postpone the local elections in 14 Montenegrin municipalities scheduled for October 23. In this way, as he said, the court would give the MPs an "educational measure", so that they would never again think of making decisions that, as he assessed, are an undermining of democracy. The Constitutional Court was supposed to decide on that issue today, but the session was postponed.
Koprivica reminded in the program Good Morning Montenegro on TVCG that the postponement of the elections in 14 cities is unconstitutional and illegal, and that now we have "undermining of democracy from our own deputies".
"It is a very bad road that is not only related to elections, but also related to the illegal elections of municipal presidents and mayors in many local units. Therefore, sooner or later everyone will be illegally elected because those municipalities must have presidents until the election and formation of new local administrations," said Koprivica.
He notes that the Constitutional Court acted untimely, and that it should have done so ten days after the decision, so that what happened did not happen.
"When it has already happened, it is good that the Constitutional Court annuls it. I believe, I will not even think about another option, I believe that it is completely clear as day. I expect the decision of the Constitutional Court to be the annulment of the postponement of the elections. And what we would like and suggested that it should also be the annulment of this illegal election of municipal presidents and mayors," said Koprivica.
He also said that holding extraordinary parliamentary elections, together with local elections in 14 cities, is one of the options on the table, stating that the majority will resolve the crisis without going to the polls.
