There was a good radio segment (can't remember the station) on the Montenegro vote to split. Many pro's and con's discussed, but ultimately it came down to which path offered quicker integration with Europe. Serbia offered many government services and trade, but a slower path. Alternatively independence meant a loss of government services, but a possibly quicker path for European integration.
That is a bait. There is no substanace to that whatsoever. Anyone who knows anything about Montenegro and its politics will know that it's a crime-infested state with lots of shady characters claiming to know "top government officials." The very PM, Milo Djukanovich, is on the Italian arrest warrant under suspicion of being involved with mafia cigarette smugglers.
The media in Montenegro are either directly controlled by the power brokers or are heavily influenced by them. Montenegro does not meet European standard criteria economically, socially, politically, or otherwise.
Montenegro has nothing to contribute to Europe. It lived off of financial aid from Serbia. For instance, all diplomatic positions in the now former union between Serbia and Montenegro had to be 50-50. The cost for that had to be paid from the federal pot of money, and that was filled with taxpayers' taxes. Except that there are 8 million Serbians and 450,000 Montenegrins. Guess who carried the burden for all federal benefits the Mongtenegrins enjoyed?
Montenegrin students in Belgrade (Serbia) could attend universities for free (only foreign students pay tuition). Where do you think the money for that will come from now?
I think the coffers that were showering Mill and his gang of opportunists with money from the West until now will dry up very fast.
They have been useful fools for someone else's interests. Now that they have done their job of Judas Iscariot, their thirty pieces of silver will seem rather worthless in comparison.
