🕵️ Hybrid

The European Union has called for an urgent session of Montenegro's National Security Council, criticizing Prime Minister Milojko Spajić for his delayed understanding and response to hybrid threats. This comes amidst reports of a 'war of bots' targeting the country, indicating growing concerns over online disinformation campaigns and national security. Adding to the political landscape, intercepted communications, referred to as 'Skai correspondence,' have emerged, alleging financial support channeled towards Serbs and the Church in Montenegro, reportedly aimed against former President Milo Đukanović. Meanwhile, Đukanović himself is scheduled to appear before an investigating judge early next week as part of the ongoing Telekom bribery probe. On the economic front, citizens are facing pressure from inflation, which stood at 5.2% in September, with the announcement of the euro model further fueling price hikes and prompting calls for immediate margin limits. Separately, the Chamber of Economy has analyzed the country's transport infrastructure, concluding that poor traffic conditions are stifling economic growth and necessitating a re-evaluation of prioritization.
