A political storm has erupted in Montenegro over the appointment of Mirna Nikčević to the Consumer Protection Council. Socialist People’s Party (SNP) MPs Bogdan Božović and Slađana Kaluđerović have clearly distanced themselves from this government decision. Their message is loud and clear: individuals who have publicly shown religious intolerance in the past should not be appointed to positions that require public trust and responsibility towards all citizens. While they have nothing against people being employed regardless of political affiliation, they insist that appointment criteria be based on expertise, integrity, and respect for the fundamental values of society. They say this government decision sends the wrong message to the public, and they are distancing themselves from it. This situation raises questions about how transparent political decisions in Montenegro really are, and whether they are based on true values or are subject to party interests and intolerance. Is this just the tip of the iceberg of political problems, or a sign that Montenegrin society is struggling with deep divisions? As debates continue, citizens remain confused and wonder who they can really trust. What do you think? Is this an example of how politics should NOT work, or just another typical political game?
