The article recalls that Djukanovic, during the so-called "Yogurt Revolution", with Momir Bulatovic, took power in the smallest Yugoslav republic, and focused on a close alliance with Slobodan Milosevic and Serbia, which Milosevic ruled at that time.
But, in the second half of the 1990s, Djukanovic, who was then the prime minister, began to distance himself from Milosevic and Bulatovic and won a number of elections running both for president or prime minister, and turning Montenegro towards the West.
Montenegro is now a member of NATO and probably the Western Balkans country that is the closest to EU membership. However, it seems that the three decades of Djukanovic's rule and that of his party, the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS), are coming to an end.
Namely, Djukanovic - who was reelected as president in 2018 - has for years been accused of smuggling, corruption and various other illegal acts. And recently a video surfaced that could prove to be fatal for his the multi-decade rule of Montenegro.
