The replacement of the current ministers of foreign affairs and
defence, Goran Svilanovic and Boris Tadic respectively, is likely to
be one of the topics of the next session of the Assembly of
Serbia-Montenegro.
If the agreement on the matter which the republics of Serbia and
Montenegro previously concluded, remains in effect, Svilanovc and
Tadic should be replaced by Vuk Draskovic, the leader of the Serb
Renewal Party (SPO) and Prvoslav Davinic of the G17 Plus.
The constitutional charter of Serbia-Montenegro, however, stipulates
that one republic of this state community cannot have its
representative at the helm of both ministries simultaneously. Previous
governments of the two republics agreed on the exception from the
rule, and, consequently, Svilanovic and Tadic, both from Serbia,
became ministers of foreign affairs and defence.
Last week, two parties in Montenegro -- the Social Democratic Party
led by Ranko Krivokapic and the Democratic Party of Socialists led by
Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic -- failed to agree on the
issue. The SDP of Montenegro is against Serbia having both ministers
at the state level.
