Airport Concession Chaos Exposed: Đeljošaj Calls Out the Lies and the Long Wait Until July 25!
Ever wonder why decisions on big government projects drag on forever? Welcome to Montenegro 2024, where the airport concession saga is turning into a full-blown soap opera! Deputy Prime Minister and economist Nik Đeljošaj has finally spoken up, exposing all the false info swirling around the tender commission and the airport concession process.
Fake News and Unverified Info – Who’s Doing This and Why?
Đeljošaj made it crystal clear: the media reports about the tender commission’s work are flat-out wrong! Yes, you read that right. Wrong! So wrong that he had to step in and set the record straight for the public. Seems like someone loves stirring the pot and spreading panic without thinking about the fallout.
What’s the Procedure Anyway?
Here’s the deal: the tender commission must approve a decision and send it to the competent authority, the istarstvo. Then, istarstvo has 15 days to publish the decision on its website and send it to the bidders. During this time, bidders can file complaints. If no complaints come in, istarstvo can deliver the decision to the Montenegrin government no earlier than July 25. If there is a complaint, the commission has 30 days to decide on it.
Why the Wait Until July 25?
Because the law must be followed! No rush can put anyone’s obligations above the law. Đeljošaj urged the media to fact-check before publishing because the public deserves accurate and lawful information, not sensationalism and misinformation.
What’s Next?
The Montenegrin government is expected to make a final decision on July 17, but the official confirmation and delivery of the decision can only happen no earlier than July 25, if there are no complaints. So, it’s all in the hands of legal procedures, not those who want to speed things up at any cost.
Why Does This Matter?
Because this is about the concession of Montenegro’s airports, a strategically important project for the country and its economy. The airports expect a record-breaking three million passengers this season, meaning huge business and big money. Any mistake or law-breaking could damage not just the economy but the country’s reputation.
Bottom Line: Law is Law, Lies are Lies!
Nik Đeljošaj made it clear that no one has the right to take on obligations or rush decisions if it’s not according to the law. If you want to know what’s really going on with the airport concession, follow official sources and don’t believe everything you read on social media or unverified media.
While we wait for July 25, feel free to speculate who spread the false info and why. And hey, if you have a good joke about government tenders, drop it in the comments – we all need a laugh in this powder keg!
