Montenegro is a country in the Balkans. It was part of the SFR Yugoslavia from 1945 to 1992 and remained part of the FR Yugoslavia and later Serbia and Montenegro until 2006.

History

NATO puppetization

In 2007, Ðukanović signed an agreement allowing NATO troops and vehicles to occupy Montenegro. He destroyed the country's Yugoslav-era weapons and ordered replacements from Britain and the USA.

In December 2015, when NATO invited Montenegro to join, thousands protested, and Ðukanović lost support from other parties in his coalition. The government published false polling data that said that a majority of citizens supported joining NATO. On the day of a parliamentary vote in October 2016 to elect the prime minister, the internet was shut down and the opposition news website Vijesti was inaccessible around the world. Ðukanović claimed that Russia plotted a coup against him.[1]

Politics

Current Prime Minister Milojko Spajić seeks to join the EU. His coalition relies on support from the anti-imperialist bloc For a Better Montenegro, whose leader Andrija Mandić agreed to support Spajić's government in exchange for becoming Speaker of the Parliament.[1]
