Montenegro: Activists demonstrating in front of the Government of Montenegro building in Podgorica May 23
Political activists protesting at the Government of Montenegro building, Podgorica, Montenegro, May 23. Heightened security likely.
Serbian and pro-Serb activists are protesting at the Government of Montenegro building on Karadordeva Street, Podgorica, as of late afternoon May 23. The demonstration is denouncing the government's stance on a potential UN resolution concerning the 1995 Srebrenica massacre. Several hundred participants attended a related demonstration on May 22.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers, potentially escalating to clashes, cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Government of Montenegro offices. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
