Montenegro Arrests Politician for Supporting Convicted War Criminal Mladić

Milivoje Brković Brdža, a United Montenegro assembly expert, was arrested in Podgorica on suspicion of publishing a post supporting Ratko Mladić, who was convicted of war crimes. This marks a notable enforcement of hate-speech or war-crime glorification laws in Montenegro, potentially signaling a tougher stance on nationalist rhetoric. The arrest could heighten political tensions ahead of elections, but details of the post and legal basis remain unclear.
