Stjepović: If what happened in America had happened in Montenegro, the mafia's servants in the institutions would be screaming

If what happened in America had happened in Montenegro, when at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner at the Washington Hilton, an armed assailant opened fire and wounded a Secret Service agent, the mafia's servants in the institutions would be screaming today, demanding resignations and trying to make political capital out of every bullet, said Democratic MP Duško Stjepović.

"In the American case, the authorities treated the incident as a serious crime and a security attack, and the suspect was subdued and arrested, and the nation was united. But in a serious state, in which public officials do not work for the mafia but for the law, such things are not a reason for political vultures, but for a decisive institutional response and unity. There, the state is not destroyed by hysteria, individual private companies founded by the mafia and political entities that are mafia lawyers, but is defended by the system," the statement said.

That's why, as he says, the difference is clear.

"In countries where everyone is united against crime, the incident is the subject of investigation, while in countries with imprisoned individuals it becomes a tool for manipulation and mafia spin," he concludes.
