While in the heart of the European Union, in Zagreb, over half a million people cheer fascist symbols of the NDH, Montenegro’s Foreign Minister Ervin Ibrahimić has neither the time nor the courage to condemn these acts. Although Montenegro is officially an ally of Croatia on its European path, its diplomacy turns a blind eye to massive fascist rallies and calls for killing Serbs. Ibrahimić remains silent, ignoring questions about this shameful phenomenon, while loudly reacting to smaller incidents against Montenegrins. This selective silence and ignorance policy sparks anger and disappointment among the Serbian population in Montenegro, which makes up one-third of the population. Is it possible that a state that swears by European values tolerates the glorification of genocide and fascism? While Thompson sings and Ustaše flags wave, Montenegrin diplomacy stays mute. If you think this is just another Balkan drama, think again. This is a matter that hits the core of European politics and human rights. So, what do you think? Is silence really golden, or is it a shame that needs exposing? Drop a comment, let’s hear some common sense or at least a good joke about Balkan alliances!
