Imagine a politician who refuses to sell his honor for any gain! That was Momir Bulatović, founder of the Socialist People’s Party of Montenegro and the first president of Montenegro. Six years after his death, Dragoslav Šćekić reminds us of a man who embodied dignity, determination, and statesman wisdom. Bulatović was not a politician who measured the moment, but history and truth. In a time when ideals mattered, and a promise to the people meant more than any political gain, he remained consistent and honest. Even when many turned their backs on him, he stayed calm and dignified, walking the honest path.
In today’s political world, where honor is often sold for short-term benefits, Bulatović’s story sounds like a fairy tale. His faith in people and principles often cost him dearly, but he never compromised his honor. Šćekić calls on us to remember him with respect and carry his name with pride, as his life and work earned him eternal glory.
This story is not just about one man but about a time when politicians had character and built the state on honesty and dignity. Today, six years after his death, maybe it’s time to ask — where have such people gone? Has politics become a ruleless game where honor and truth are lost in the race for power? Bulatović’s example reminds us there is another way, a path that requires courage and consistency.
If you think there are no heroes in politics today, remember Momir Bulatović. And maybe, just maybe, we can learn something from his story. What do you think?
