Nebojša Medojević

Montenegrin politician

Nebojša Medojević (Serbian Cyrillic: Небојша Медојевић; born June 13, 1966) is a politician in Montenegro. He is the president of Movement for Changes (PzP), a political party emerging from the Montenegrin NGO Group for Changes. He ran for president in the 2008 presidential election of Montenegro.

Medojević began his political career in 1989, when he and other students founded the "Student Forum Peace Movement", which argued against Montenegrin reservists in the Yugoslav People's Army mobilizing for the Croatian front in the breakup of Yugoslavia. Due to his anti war positions during the breakup of Yugoslavia, Medojević was labeled as a "traitor" and a "foreign agent" by the local media. In March 2000, he was a guest at a party assembly meeting of the Liberal Alliance (LSCG), which at the time tried courting Medojević into their party. Although Medojević supported Montenegro's independence from the state union of Serbia and Montenegro, he told The Economist in 2004 that independence should be delayed for economic reforms. In spite of his personal pro independence stance, Medojević made the decision to not join the pro independence coalition before the 2006 Montenegrin independence referendum. In February 2006, he participated in a meeting with the leading unionists, Predrag Bulatović and Miodrag Lekić, and former Minister of Police Andrija Jovićević, in what he said was a discussion to "change the regime of Milo Đukanović after the referendum, regardless of the referendum results". The director of the Trade Mission of Montenegro in Washington, Zorica Marić Đorđević, denied the allegation, suggesting that the delegation came uninvited. He came in third with slightly over 16% of the national vote. In the summer of 2012, a broad coalition of opposition parties called Democratic Front formed in Montenegro, which Medojević and his party joined. Later that year, Medojević proposed to remove the last lines of the national anthem of Montenegro, Oj, svijetla majska zoro. He stated that the anthem's author, Sekula Drljević, was a war criminal and a fascist. The tweet was in reference to the Belgrade Waterfront project. In October 2015 Medojević participated in the anti government protests in Montenegro. He suffered injuries in a confrontation with the riot police during the protests. Medojević rejected an invitation by Democratic Front leader Andrija Mandić, to attend a protest against Montenegro's accession to NATO in December 2015. Medojević stated that he and his party are not against Montenegro's accession to NATO, but that he wants a referendum on whether Montenegro should join NATO. Otherwise, the Bosniak Party had previously participated in coalitions with the ruling DPS. During the 2016 US presidential election cycle, Medojević endorsed Donald Trump. In a discussion with Vijesti, Medojević criticized Hillary Clinton, stating that "she represents the old foreign policy of interventions, wars, formation of terrorist organizations and regime change, which has brought the world to global catastrophe and to an explosion of terrorism." Medojević is recently known for often sensationalistic accusation of the ruling DPS politicians, as well as some leaders of rival political parties and liberal media journalists for betraying national interests, even for work in interest of a foreign intelligence services and a deep state, as well as kind of George Soros backed, "globalist lobby", seen Soros as a kind of puppet master secretly controlling the global economy and politics. During the late December 2019, as the new law of legal status of religious communities was adopted by the Parliament of Montenegro, Medojević accuses the Montenegrin authorities, some media and NGOs of allegedly being part of the "Jewish banking, globalist and anti christian plot", that trying to "eliminate" Christian tradition, values and cultural identity of the country. In 2020, Medojević decried COVID 19 as the work of "global Satanists" and "the pedophiles of the Deep State", spearheaded by Bill Gates and George Soros, whose real aim is to topple Donald Trump. On 4 November 2020, Medojević congratulated the "electorial victory and re election" to Donald Trump at the US presidential election, "Biden's communists tried a coup by voting by letter. Caught in the act!”, stated Medojević, sharing Trump's allegations of electoral fraud. He also claiming that COVID 19 is an "artificially isolated biological weapon". "The goal was the US elections. 7 days after the historic election theft, the pharmac. corp. promised to have the vaccine. The global deep state is the greatest threat to humanity", stated Medojević on his official Twitter account on 10 November.
